Putting into Operation
The probe is designed for usage with oscilloscopes that have a Rohde
&
Schwarz
probe interface. Supported Rohde
&
Schwarz oscilloscopes are listed in the pro-
be's data sheet.
Chapter 1, "Safety Information"
During usage, the probe slightly heats up. Warming is normal behavior and not a
sign of malfunction.

Connecting the Probe to the Oscilloscope
Connecting
1. If the extension cable is connected to the probe box, disconnect it.
To avoid damage to the device, connect the cable only to a grounded probe.
2. If your DUT is floating and not grounded, connect the DUT ground to the oscil-
loscope ground before connecting the probe to your DUT.
3. Connect the probe box (1) to the Rohde & Schwarz probe interface of the
base unit (2).
The probe snaps in when connected properly to the port.
4. Connect the extension cable to the probe box.
