To Calibrate the Probe
Before using, you should calibrate the PVA7000 series active probe. Follow the
procedures below to calibrate the PVA7000 active probe:

Connect the PVA7000 active probe to the analog channel (CH1 to CH4 of
the oscilloscope, illustrations here are based on CH1).
2.
Open the probe calibration control menu (front panel operation:

→
Probe
→
Probe-Cal
), and the oscilloscope starts to calibrate the probe.
The calibration will last for about 40 to 50 seconds. When the probe
calibration is finished, a prompt message "Probe calibration finished!" or
"Probe calibration failure!" is displayed in the user interface of the
oscilloscope.
Note: Technical specifications of the PVA7000 series active probe depend on
the calibration operation. After the calibration is finished, the DC gain, offset
voltage zero and offset gain will be calibrated. Users can query the information
about the manufacturer, model, serial number and the last calibration time of
