Probe Calibration Steps with the TF-DSQ Fixture

Probe calibration is accomplished with the TF-DSQ fixture by following the steps in the following
flowchart.

Note: It is recommended that you read the instructions presented here in their entirety to
familiarize yourself with the advanced features of the TF-DSQ fixture prior to use.

The combination of TF-DSQ fixture and oscilloscope software is designed with an important use
model. Connecting probes to the circuit under test can be a difficult procedure. LeCroy's system,
therefore, is designed in a manner that allows you to set up the probe calibration fixture,
calibrate each individual probe once, connect your probes to the circuit, and disconnects the
fixture. Once your probes are in the circuit, there is no need to revisit the fixture until the next
calibration interval.
