4. Switch the power switch of the probe to ON.
5. Adjust the attenuation ratio on the probe.
If you measure signals below 140
V (peak), set the attenuation to 100:1 to get
higher resolution and less noise. Otherwise, set the attenuation to 1000:1.
6. If you use an R&S RTO or R&S RTE, set up the oscilloscope as follows:
a) On the "Vertical" menu, select "Probe Setup".
b) Select the "Predefined probe": "RT-ZD01 (100:1)" or "RT-ZD01 (1000:1)"
according to the setting on the probe.
7. If you use an R&S RTM, set up the oscilloscope as follows:
a) In the VERTICAL section on the front panel, press the appropriate channel
key.
b) On the first page of the "Channels" menu, set:
● Coupling: "DC"
● Termination: "1
MΩ"
● Press "More".

c) Press "Probe" on the second page of the "Channels" menu.
d) In the "Probe" menu, set:
● Unit: "V - Volt"
● Attenuation: "x100" or "x1000" according to the setting on the probe.

8. Adjust the offset level:
a) Set the measuring instrument to the smallest vertical resolution (vertical
scale).
b) Short the two input leads of the probe.
