AutoZero

WaveLink probes incorporate an AutoZero function to remove any DC offset from the probe. This
function is available when the probe is used with Teledyne LeCroy's X-Stream oscilloscopes, and
must be invoked by the user.

After several minutes of warm-up, or when the probe is exposed to a large shift in ambient
temperature, some DC offset may occur, and an AutoZero cycle should be initiated.

Start an AutoZero cycle by removing the probe from the circuit under test and touching the on-
screen AutoZero button to remove output offset drift.

Accessory Use

A variety of accessories are provided with the probe and platform/cable assembly. These
accessories help keep the probe tip in place and provide deskew capabilities or are simply common
replacement parts.

Positioning Tools

Freehand Probe Holder

The FreeHand Probe Holder (PACC-MS001) is provided as a standard accessory with the WL-PLINK-
A-CASE and WL-2.92MM-CASE. It is designed to keep most of the weight on the probe tip preventing
loss of contact with the circuit under test. The FreeHand Probe Holder is a stable, quick and easy-to-
set-up probe positioner, improving your ability to concentrate on the measurement by not having to
hold the probe.
