P7350 5 GHz Differential Probe Instruction Manual
When the probe is connected, the host instrument reads EEPROM
information from the probe, identifying the device and allowing the
appropriate power supplies to be turned on. The preamp inputs on the
host instrument are ESD protected by remaining grounded until a
valid TekConnect device is detected.
The TekConnect interface features a spring-loaded latch that
provides audible and tactile confirmation that a reliable connection
has been made to the host instrument. Slide the probe into the
TekConnect receptacle on the host instrument. The probe snaps into
the receptacle when fully engaged. See Figure 2.
To release the probe from the host instrument, grasp the compensa-
tion box, press the latch button, and pull out the probe.
