7.2.1 Minimum load requirements for the probe voltage outputs
The following requirements apply to any external device or circuit connected to the probe voltage outputs:
In the situation where the external device uses an internal pull-up resistor the value of this resistor should
meet the requirements shown below. It is also necessary to add a pull-down resistor RL connected to ground
in order to be able to read 100% of the range of the probe voltage output.
