Feature/Accessory Description
Pogo pin
Low-inductance ground pogo pin (10 ea).
Use the low-inductance ground pogo pin to
substantially reduce ground lead inductance.
Because the pogo pin simply touches the ground
reference, you can easily move the probe to
different points on the circuit under test.
To attach, press the pogo pin into the probe head
ground socket.
When selecting the grounding connection,
maintain as short a ground path as possible.
Refer to page 18 for more information.

length adapter
Ground pin length adapter (10 ea).
The ground pin length adapter is ideal for use
with signal/ground pairs on 0.100 inch square-
header pins.
Attach the adapter by gently pressing it into the
ground socket on the probe head.
Be sure to use the stabilization notch whenever
possible to avoid slipping and damaging the
probe or circuitry under test.
