3. Open the probe calibration control menu (front panel operation: CH1

Probe

Probe-Cal). At this point, calibration prompt message is
displayed in the user interface of the oscilloscope. Follow the prompt
message to connect part 1 to the oscilloscope. Generally, connect the BNC
(male) of the connector to the corresponding analog channel and the male
BNC of the cable to the [Trig Out/Calibration] port at the rear panel of
the oscilloscope.
4. Adjust the spacing between the probe tip and the ground collar so as to
connect the probe tip to the middle signal line on the calibration board and
the ground collar to the both sides of the middle signal line. Note: it is
recommended to place the probe tip at the middle of the calibration board.
5. Press Start and the oscilloscope starts to calibrate the probe. The
calibration will last for about 40 to 50 seconds. When probe calibration
finished, “Probe calibration finished!” or “Probe calibration failure!” is
displayed in the user interface of the oscilloscope. Note: to ensure the
calibration precision, the probe tips must be firmly connected to the
calibration board during the calibration.
Note: Relative specifications of the RP7000S series single-ended active probe
depend on the calibration operation. After the calibration is finished, the DC
gain, offset voltage zero and offset gain will be calibrated. User can query the
information about the manufacturer, model, serial number and the last
calibration time of the probe through CH1
