Check and observe probe ratings before using probes.
A guard around the TPP0101/TPP0201 probe body provides a finger barrier for
protection from electric shock.

WARNING. To avoid electric shock when using the probe, keep fingers behind
the guard on the probe body.
To avoid electric shock while using the probe, do not touch metallic portions of
the probe head while it is connected to a voltage source.

ge Probe Check Wizard
You can use the Probe Check Wizard to verify that a voltage probe is operating
properly. The wizard does not support current probes.

waveform, such as RefA 1.00V 500µs.

The oscilloscope displays a message area (item number 15 in the previous figure)
bottom of the screen that conveys the following types of helpful information:

The user interface of the oscilloscopes was designed for easy access to specialized
functions through the menu structure.
When you push a front-panel button, the oscilloscope displays the corresponding
menu on the right side of the screen. The menu shows the options that are available
when you push the unlabeled option buttons directly to the right of the screen.

Operating Basics
The oscillosco
pe uses several m ethods to display menu options:
Page (Submenu) Selection: For some menus, y ou can use the top option
buttontochoo
se two or three submenus. Each time you push the top button,
the options change. For example, when you push the top button in the Trigger
Menu, the oscilloscope cycles through the Edge, Video, and Pulse Width
trigger submenus.
Circular List: The oscilloscope sets the parameter to a different value each
time you push the option button. For example, you can push the 1 (channel
1 menu) button and then push the top option button to cycle through the
Vertical (channel) Coupling options.
In some lists, you can use the multipurpose knob to select an option. A hint
line tells you when the multipurpose knob can be used, and an LED by the
multipu
rpose knob lights when the knob is active. (See page 21, Menu and
Control Buttons.)
Action
: The oscilloscope displays the type of action that will immediately
occur when you push an Action option button. For example, when the Help
Index is visible, and you push the Page Down option button, the oscilloscope
immediately displays the next page of index entries.
Radio: The oscilloscope uses a different button for each option. The
currently-selected option is highlighted. For example, the o scilloscope
displays various acquisition mode options when you push the Acquire Menu
button. To select an option, push the corresponding button.
