Operating information
The TPP1000 10X Passive Probe is a high impedance probe
with 10X attenuation that is designed for use with Tektronix
5 Series MSO and MDO3000, MDO/MSO/DPO4000B,
MSO/DPO5000 series ground-referenced oscilloscopes.
Connect the probe as shown in the illustrations below.
Compensating the Probe
You should compensate the probe after you attach it to an
oscilloscope for the
fi
rst time, or after you have changed the
probe tip cartridge.
1.
Connect the probe to an oscilloscope channel.
2.
Connect the probe tip and ground to the probe
compensation terminals on the oscilloscope.
NOTE.
When using the MMCX tip (206-0663-xx), the following
part numbers are required to connect the tip to the Probe
Comp connections: 131-9717-xx (1), 196-3434-xx (1),
and 206-0569-xx (2). See Connecting the MMCX tip to the
oscilloscope Probe Comp.
3.
On 5 Series MSO instruments:
a.
Double tap the Channel Badge for the connected
probe.
b.
Select the Probe Setup.
c.
Select Compensate Probe.
d.
Select Compensate Probe in the pop up window.
4.
On MSO/DPO5000 instruments:
a.
Select Vertical > Probe Cal....
b.
Select the tab of the channel for the connected probe.
c.
In the Calibration section, click Calibrate Probe.
5.
On MDO3000 and MDO/MSO/DPO4000B instruments:
Press the Channel Menu front panel button for the
channel that you connected the probe to.
Push the More button until Probe Setup is selected.
Push the Calibrate Probe button and follow the
on-screen instructions.
If the probe compensation fails, verify that the signal and
ground connections are secure at the Probe Comp connections.
Also check that the ground connection is secure at the probe
head, the rigid, MMCX or pogo tip is secured tightly in the
probe head, and the hook tip is securely connected to the tip.
Standard accessories
WARNING.
To avoid electric shock when using the probe or
accessories, keep
fi
ngers behind the

Ground springs
To limit aberrations on high
frequency signals caused by
ground path inductance, bend
the spring to reach nearby
ground connections (<0.75 in,
long; <0.25 in, short).
