changes from 200 mV/div to 20 mV/div.

7. Reconnect the Probe to the oscilloscope.

The warranted characteristics of the probe are valid at any temperature within
the Environmental Characteristics listed in the Specifications. However, some of
the other test equipment used to verify the performance may have
environmental limitations required to meet the accuracy needed for the
procedure. Be sure that the ambient conditions meet the requirements of all the
test instruments used in his procedure.

NOTE: The correct operation of the ZS4000 controls requires software version
