General Safety Information
Observe generally accepted safety procedures in addition to those
listed here to avoid personal injury or damage to equipment. The
overall safety of any system incorporating this accessory is the
responsibility of the assembler of the system.
Connect only to grounded instruments. Use only with compatible Teledyne
LeCroy oscilloscopes that have their BNC input connected to an earth
ground. Do not connect the probe reference lead to any point which is at a
potential other than earth ground.
Connect and disconnect properly. Connect probe to the oscilloscope before
connecting it to the test circuit. Disconnect the probe input and reference
lead from the test circuit before disconnecting from the oscilloscope. Do
not connect/disconnect probes while connected to a voltage source.
Do not overload. Do not apply any potential to the probe leads that exceeds
the maximum rating of the probe. Observe all terminal ratings on the
oscilloscope before connecting. Consult the oscilloscope product manual
for further ratings information.
Always comply with the Voltage vs. Frequency Derating Curve.
Do not remove probe casing. Touching exposed connections may result in
electric shock.
Use indoors only within operational environment listed. Do not use in wet or
explosive atmospheres. Keep product surfaces clean and dry.
Handle with care. Probe tips are extremely sharp and may puncture skin or
cause other bodily injury if not handled properly.
Keep fingers behind the finger guard of probe body and accessories.
