P5100A Performance Veri
fi
cation
Use these performance veri
fi
cation procedures to verify that the probe meets the warranted speci
fi
cations. These
procedures should be performed in the order given using a DPO4104B oscilloscope with the equipment recommended in
the following table. (See Table 1.)
WARNING.
The following instructions are for use by quali
fi
ed service personnel only. To avoid electrical shock, do not
disassemble or maintain the probe while it is connected to a signal source other than those speci
fi
ed in these procedures.
NOTE.
The probe must be low-frequency compensated before performance can be veri
fi
ed.
If your probe fails to qualify under these conditions, service-level adjustments (DC gain and high-frequency compensation)
may be required. These adjustments must be done by a trained service person.
