by the manufacturer.
4. While the instruments are reaching operating temperature, make a photocopy of the
Performance Verification Test Record (located in Appendix A), and fill in the necessary data.
5. Select the channel to which the probe is connected. Set the oscilloscope scale factor to
20mV/div.
6. Disconnect the ProBus Extender Cable from the oscilloscope. Verify that the scale factor
changes from 20 mV/div to 2 mV/div.
7. Re-connect the ProBus extender Cable to the oscilloscope.
NOTE: The correct operation of the HFP1500 controls requires software version 8.7.0 or higher on
LC series oscilloscopes. The software version in the test oscilloscope can be verified by pushing
