Usage
The probe is intended to be used only with instruments which are connected to earth ground
through the input BNC connector. Connect the grounding terminal of the probe to the ground
potential of a device to be measured.
WARNING Do not disconnect the probe while it is connected to a voltage source.
Do not directly touch a measuring point. Do not use the probe in wet or
explosive atmospheres.
WARNING Probe tips are sharp, misuse can result in injury. Use with care.
The use of the probe and/or the instrument it is connected to in a
manner other than specified may impair the safety mechanisms.
CAUTION To guarantee accurate performance characteristics, mechanical shocks
should be avoided, as well as damage to the cable through excessive
bending. Do not exceed the maximum specified signal voltage levels
(See Specifications).
