Description
Seated
against
probe head
Variable spacing adapter (4 ea).
The variable spacing adapter
fits over the probe tip. Push the adapter onto the probe tip until it
seats against the probe head.
Use the variable spacing adapter to probe any two adjacent leads
or test points spaced between 0.020 and 0.180-inches apart. See
Figure 16 on page 28 for physical dimensions of the adapter.
Adjust the articulated pins by gently rotating them using a pair of
tweezers.
NOTE:
The articulated pins can be bent, but they are fragile. Use
extreme care when bending the pins.
The elastomeric contacts inside the adapter are rated for 50--75
insertion cycles with the probe tip. Replace the adapter after
exceeding these limits to avoid unreliable operation.

physical dimensions of the adapter.
CAUTION:
To avoid damaging the square pin connectors, do not
insert anything larger than a 0.025-inch square pin into the inputs.
The elastomeric contacts inside the adapter are rated for 50--75
