Installing the Push-in Probe Tip
— Attach the
push-in probe tip by seating the tip into the probe
tip socket and pushing the tip in until it is seated.
Either end of the tip may be used.
Do not force the tip
. Also, be careful not to poke
yourself with the sharp probe-tip. To remove the
tip,
gently
grab the tip with small pliers and pull
the tip out.
Right Angle
Adapter
Right-angle adapter — Use the right-angle
adapter for low-profile probing of 0.025-inch
diameter square pins.
The right-angle adapter allows the P6243 to lie
flat against a circuit board. This enables probing
in vertical circuits such as computer or commu-
nications backplanes, or in tight areas such as
between circuit cards.
The right-angle adapter can be used directly with
the probe head, or attached to the Y-lead adapter
or ground leads.
The right-angle adapter is attached the same way
as the push-in probe tip, and can be easily
removed by hand.
Y-lead
Adapter
“Y-lead” adapter
— Use the Y-lead adapter to
extend the physical reach of the probe and
ground when necessary. The Y-lead adapter
accepts any of the probe tips or adapters, and
can be pushed directly onto 0.025 inch pins.
When selecting the grounding connection,
maintain as short a ground path as possible.
Refer to page 10 for more information.
To attach the Y-lead adapter, gently press the
lead pins into the probe head tip and ground
receptacles. Using the black lead for ground is
recommended.
