5  Probe Operation 

The SAP series probe is a precision test instrument accessory. Exercise care 

when handling and storing the probe. Always handle the probe by the probe 

body or compensation box. Avoid putting excessive strain or exposing the 

probe cable to sharp bends. 

 

 

ESD Sensitive

: The tips of the probes are sensitive to Electrostatic 

Discharge (ESD). Avoid causing damage to the probe by always following 

anti-static procedures (wear wrist strap, etc.) when using or handling the 

probe.

 

 

5.1  Connecting the Probe to an Oscilloscope 

The SAP2500D differential probes have been designed for use with Si

glent’s 

SDS5000X and SDS6000A platforms equipped with the SAPBus interface. 

When you attach the probe output connector to the oscilloscope’s input 

connector, the oscilloscope recognizes the probe and provides proper 

termination.   

 

5.2  Connecting the Probe to the Test Circuit 

To maintain the high-performance capability of the probe in measurement 

applications, care must be exercised in connecting the probe to the test circuit.
