For some active probes (such as InfiniiMax probes), the oscilloscope can
accurately calibrate its analog channels for the probe. When you connect a
probe that can be calibrated, the
Calibrate Probe
softkey appears (and the probe
attenuation softkey may change). See

To specify the channel units
1
Press the probe's associated channel key.
2
In the Channel Menu, press
Probe
.
3
In the Channel Probe Menu, press
Units
; then, select:
•
Volts
— for a voltage probe.
•
Amps
— for a current probe.
Channel sensitivity, trigger level, measurement results, and math functions will
reflect the measurement units you have selected.
To specify the probe attenuation
This is set automatically if the oscilloscope can identify the connected probe. See
Analog channel inputs (see
).
The probe attenuation factor must be set properly for accurate measurement
results.
If you connect a probe that is not automatically identified by the oscilloscope, you
can manually set the attenuation factor as follows:
1
Press the channel key.
2
Press the
Probe
softkey until you have selected how you want to specify the
attenuation factor, choosing either
Ratio
or
Decibels
.
3
Turn the Entry knob
to set the attenuation factor for the connected probe.
When measuring voltage values, the attenuation factor can be set from 0.001:1 to
10000:1 in a 1-2-5 sequence.
When measuring current values with a current probe, the attenuation factor can
be set from 10 V/A to 0.0001 V/A.
