Signal Measurement
Ch. 1—yellow banana jack
Ch. 2—green banana jack
Ch. 3—blue banana jack
Ch. 4—red banana jack
Each channel input is referenced to
common ground input (GND—black banana
jack)
Sample Rate
For 50uS sweep 6MSPS
For 100uS sweep 3MSPS
For all other sweeps 1.5 MSPS
Continuous sampling,
MSPS = mega samples per second
Bandwidth

3 db point @ 3 MHz
Input Impedance
10 MOhm
@ DC
4 kOhm @ 3 MHz
Channel 1–4
VDC (Full Scale)
100mV–400V
Do not measure greater than 75VDC
VAC (Full Scale)
100mV–400V
Do not measure greater than 50VAC (rms)
Low Amp Probe
20A scale (100mV/Amp)
40A scale (10mV/Amp)
60A scale (10mV/Amp)
Connect Low amp Probe (+) to Ch. 1
(yellow banana jack) and (–) to GND input
(black banana jack).
