Cleaning
Inspect the oscilloscope and pro bes as often as operating conditions require. To clean the exterior surface, perform the following
steps:
1. Remove loose dust on the outside of the oscilloscope and probes with a lint-free cloth. Use care to avoid scratching the clear
glass display filter.
2. Use a soft cloth dampened with water to clean the oscilloscope. Use an aqueous solution of 75% isopropyl alcohol for
more efficient cleaning.
CAUTION. To avoid damage to the surface of the oscilloscope or probes, do not use any abrasive or chemical cleaning agents.

Installation
Connecting Probes
The DPO4000 oscilloscope supports probes with the following:
1. Tektronix Versatile Probe Interf ace
(TekVPI)
These probes support two-way
communication with the oscilloscope
through on-screen menus and remotely
through programmable support. The
remote control is usefu l in applications like
ATE where you want the system to preset
probe parameters.
2. TPA-BNC Adapter
The TPA-BNC Adapter allows you to use
TekProbe Level II probe capabilities, such
as providing probe power and passing
information to the oscilloscope on scaling
and whether the units are volts or amperes.
3. Plain BNC interfaces
These probes only pass the waveform
signal to the oscilloscope. There is no
other communication.
10 DPO4000 Series User Manual
For more information on the many probes available for use with DPO4000 oscilloscopes, refer to www.tektronix.com.
Powering On the Oscilloscope
Ground the Oscilloscope and Yourself
Before pushing the power switch, connect the oscilloscope to an electrically neutral reference point, such as earth ground. Do this
by plugging the three-pronged power cord into an outlet grounded to earth ground.
Grounding the oscilloscope is necessary for safety and to take accurate measurements. The oscilloscope needs to share the
same ground as any circuits that you are testing.
Installation
DPO4000 Series User Manual 11
Installation
If you are working with static sensitive
components, ground yourself. Static electricity
that builds up on your body can da mage
static-sensitive components. Wearing a
grounding strap safely sends static charges on
your body to earth ground.
