strain relief away from the probe body and slide the
cartridge toward the strain relief.

the latch engages.

By having a fixed tip rather than a socket, the High Frequency cartridge is able to increase signal
fidelity at higher frequencies.
The High Frequency Cartridge is an optional accessory for the HFP1500.
