Probe Interfaces

Teledyne LeCroy oscilloscopes are equipped with a variety of probe
interfaces to allow you to connect cables directly to the oscilloscope
channels, or to connect probes to the oscilloscope, reducing the need to
use costly adapters that may be easily lost or misplaced.

The probe connection interfaces power the probe and completely
integrate the probe with the oscilloscope channel in a number of ways:

Upon connection, the probe is recognized and some setup
information, such as input coupling and attenuation, is
performed automatically.

System (probe plus oscilloscope) gain settings are automatically
calculated and displayed based on the probe attenuation.

Most active probes match probe to oscilloscope response
automatically using probe response data stored in an on-board
EEPROM. This ensures the best possible combined probe plus
oscilloscope channel frequency response without the need to
perform any de-embedding procedure.

The available probe interfaces on a LabMaster 10 Zi system are: 1.85
mm and 2.92 mm.
