Precautions to Be Taken When Using Probes Other Than Those Provided with the
Instrument
• When measuring a signal containing frequency components near 500 MHz, use a
probe with a frequency range of 500 MHz or higher.
• Note that measured values cannot be displayed correctly when using a probe with an
attenuation other than 1:1, 10:1, 100:1, and 1000:1.
Setting the Probe Attenuation
Follow the procedures given in section 5.5 and set the attenuation/current-to-voltage
conversion ratio of the instrument according to the probe attenuation/current-to-voltage
conversion ratio. Correct measured values can be displayed only if the setting is correct.
When Using the FET Probe, Current Probe, or Differential Probe
When using FET probes (700939), current probes (700937, 701930, 701931, 701932, or
701933), or differential probes (701920 or 701922) made by YOKOGAWA, use the
probe power supply on the rear panel of the instrument.
CAUTION
Do not use the probe power supply terminals on the rear panel of the instrument
for purposes other than supplying power to the FET probe (700939), current
probes (700937, 701930, 701931, 701932, or 701933), or differential probes
(701920, or 701922). Doing so may damage the instrument or the device
connected to them.
