3.TPA-BNC Adapter
The TPA-BNC Adapter allows you to use TEKPROBE II probe capabilities, such as providing probe power and passing
scaling and unit information to the oscilloscope.
4.BNC Interfaces
Some of these use TEKPROBE capabilities to pass the waveform signal and scaling to the oscilloscope. Some only pass
the signal and there is no other communication.
5.Logic Probe Interface
The P6316 probe provides 16 channels of digital (logical one or zero) information.
6.The TPA-N-VPI Adapter allows you to use TekVPI probes with the RF input.
Connect TPP0250, TPP0500B, TPP1000, TekVPI+, TekVPI, or other supported Tektronix analog probes by pushing them into
an input connector. The probe base latch locks with a 'click' when the probe is fully seated.
TekVPI probes automatically set the channel input parameters for that probe (bandwidth, attenuation, termination, and so on). If
a probe has a Menu button, push that button to open an on-screen configuration menu. Follow instructions provided with active
probes to set their parameters (auto zero, degauss, and so on).
Connect a BNC probe or cable by pushing it onto a channel BNC bayonet connector and turn the lock mechanism clockwise until
it locks.
For more information on the many probes available for use with 3 Series MDO oscilloscopes, visit the Oscilloscope Probe and
Accessory Selector Tool on the Tektronix website at www.tektronix.com.
NOTE. Connecting a probe does not automatically enable that channel (make it active). Use the instrument controls or
programmatic interface to turn on a channel and open its configuration menu to verify or change probe or cable settings
(bandwidth, attenuation, termination and so on).
Rackmount information
The optional RM3 Rackmount Kit lets you install the oscilloscope in standard equipment racks. The rack mount requires six rack
units (6U) of space to install.
Contact Tektronix Customer Support to purchase the rackmount kit option RM3. Follow the instructions that come with the
rackmount kit (RM3 Rackmount Kit Instructions, Tektronix part number 071-3609-xx).
