Using the Logic Probe
Touch the LP10A or LP25A probe tip to the circuit point under test.  The probes
LED’s indicate the logic level or signals present when the circuit

 

node is probed.

The LED’s response is noted on page 11.

MAINTENANCE

If there appears to be a malfunction during the operation of the Logic Probe, the
following steps should be performed in order to isolate the cause of the problem:

Review the operating instructions for possible mistakes in operating procedure.

 Inspect and test the Test Cables for a broken or intermittent connection.  Any

repair of the Logic Probe should be performed only by a Factory Authorized Service
Center or by other qualified instrument service personnel. The probe case can be
cleaned with a mild solution of detergent and water.  Apply sparingly with a soft
cloth and allow the Logic Probe to dry completely before using.  Do not use
aromatic hydrocarbons or chlorinated solvents for cleaning.
