User Manual 1419.3128.02 ─ 05
Consider that the rated voltage depends on the frequency. The voltage limita-
tion curves or values are provided in the data sheet.
●
Never cause any short circuits when measuring sources with high output cur-
rents.
●
Use only probes and accessories that comply with the measurement category
(CAT) of your measurement task. If the product is rated for any measurement
category, the permitted category is indicated on the product and in the data
sheet. If you use other than Rohde
&
Schwarz accessories, make sure that
they are suitable for the instrument and the measurement task.
●
Set the correct attenuation factor on the instrument according to the probe
being used. Otherwise, the measurement results do not reflect the actual volt-
age level, and you might misjudge the actual risk.
●
The probe pins are extremely pointed and can easily penetrate clothes and
the skin. Handle the probe pins with great care. To exchange a probe pin, use
tweezers or pliers to avoid injuries. When transporting the accessories, always
use the box supplied with the probe.
●
Prevent the probe from receiving mechanical shock. Avoid putting excessive
strain on the probe cable or exposing it to sharp bends. Touching a broken
cable during measurements can cause injuries.
●
Set up all probe connections to the instrument before applying power.
