Identification of buffer amplifier and probe
When the R&S

Z1M is connected to the oscilloscope, the oscilloscope recognizes
the buffer amplifier and reads out the specific parameters from the data memory of the
buffer amplifier.
When a probe is connected to the buffer amplifier, the oscilloscope also reads the
probe-specific parameters through the buffer amplifier.
For information on probe-specific settings and information, refer to the oscilloscope's
user manual.

Connecting the buffer amplifier to the DUT
Observe the following step order when connecting the components of the measure-
ment setup. Also read and observe the instructions in
Chapter 1, "Safety information"
1. Connect the buffer amplifier to the grounded oscilloscope.
2. Connect the probe to the buffer amplifier.
3. Switch off the test circuit.
4. Connect the probe to the DUT. Ensure a stable connection between the DUT and
the probe.
5. Switch on the test circuit.
