P7240 4 GHz 5X Active Probe User Manual
When the probe is connected, the oscilloscope reads EEPROM
information from the probe, identifying the device a nd allowing the
appropriate power supplies to be powered on. The pream p inputs on
the oscilloscope are electrostatic discharge protected by remaining
grounded until a valid TekConnect device is detected.
Installation
The TekConne ct interface features a spring-loaded latch that
provides audible and tactile confirmation that a reliable c onnection
has been made to the oscilloscope. Slide the probe into the
TekConnect receptacle on the osc illoscope. The probe snaps into the
oscilloscope when fully engaged. See Figure 2.
To release the probe from the oscilloscope, grasp the compensation
box, depress the latch button, and pull out the probe.
