Table 3- 3: Troubleshooting (Cont.)

Problem

Remedy

Measurements exhibit excessive noise

Current Probe is not locked. Lock the current probe.

Current Probe is improperly connected to the amplifier input.

Amplifier output is not terminated into 50

load. Set input impedance of oscilloscope

to 50

or connect a 50

feed-through termination at the oscilloscope input,

not

the amplifier output.

Defective current probe transformer.

Measurement aberrations exceed the specified
limit

The amplifier output is not terminated into 50

load. Set the input impedance of the

oscilloscope to 50

or connect a 50

feedthrough termination (see the replaceable

parts list on page 8--6) at the oscilloscope input. Do not attach the termination to
amplifier output.

The measurement exceeds the maximum continuous current or Ampere-second
product ratings of the Current Probe. (For more information, see

Current Limits

page 3--4

) If possible, upgrade to a probe with a higher current rating or use a CT-4

transformer.

Excessive low frequency droop in pulse
response or low DC gain accuracy

Check that the probe slider is fully closed and locked.

Check and clean the probe transformer and lid.

Degauss the probe.

The amplifier or the oscilloscope may be AC coupled. Set the COUPLING to DC.

Measurements exhibit excessive delay or
slowed pulse response

The amplifier output is not terminated into 50

load. Set the input impedance of the

oscilloscope to 50

or connect a 50

feedthrough termination (see the replaceable

parts list on page 8--6) at the oscilloscope input. Do not attach the termination to the
amplifier output.

The measurement exceeds the Ampere-second product of the Current Probe. If
possible, upgrade to a probe with a higher current rating or use a CT-4 transformer.

The oscilloscope bandwidth limit is turned on. Verify that the bandwidth limit switch on
the oscilloscope is set to the desired bandwidth position.

Probe jaw not opening and closing freely

The jaw mechanism is dirty -- disassemble probe, clean and lubricate. Refer to the
probe disassembly procedures on page 7--13.
