General Safety Information
Observe generally accepted safety procedures in addition to those listed
here to avoid personal injury or damage to equipment. The overall safety
assembler of the system.
Connect only to grounded instruments. Use only with compatible Teledyne LeCroy
oscilloscopes that have their BNC input connected to an earth ground. Do not
connect the probe reference lead to any point which is at a potential other than
earth ground.
Connect and disconnect properly. Connect probe to the oscilloscope before
connecting it to the test circuit. Disconnect the probe input and reference lead
from the test circuit before disconnecting from the oscilloscope. Do not connect
or disconnect probes while they are connected to a voltage source.
Do not overload. Do not apply any potential to the probe leads that exceeds the
maximum rating of the probe.
Always comply with the Voltage vs. Frequency Derating Curve.
Observe all terminal ratings. Observe all markings on the oscilloscope before
connecting. Consult the oscilloscope product manual for further ratings
information.
Do not remove probe casing. Touching exposed connections may result in
electric shock.
Do not excessively bend cables.
Use indoors only within operational environment listed. Do not use in wet or
explosive atmospheres. Keep product surfaces clean and dry.
Handle with care. Probe tips are extremely sharp and may puncture skin or
cause other bodily injury if not handled properly.
Keep fingers behind the finger guard of probe body and accessories.

Operator’s Manual
Do not operate with suspected failures. Before each use, inspect the probe and
accessories for any potential damage such as tears or other defects in the probe
body, cable jacket, accessories, etc. If any part is damaged, cease operation
immediately and sequester the probe from inadvertent use.
EC Declaration of Conformity

measurement, control and laboratory use – Part 031: Safety requirements for
handheld probe assemblies for electrical measurement and test.
EU RoHS Compliance
The probe and its accessories conform to the 2011/65/EU RoHS2 Directive, as
they have been classified as Industrial Monitoring and Control Equipment (per
Article 3, Paragraph 24) and are exempt from RoHS compliance until 22 July 2017
(per Article 4, Paragraph 3).
Disposal
The probe is marked with this symbol to indicate that it complies
with the applicable European Union requirements to Directives
2002/96/EC and 2006/66/EC on Waste Electrical and Electronic

Probe Compensation
Proper compensation of the probe is required to assure amplitude accuracy of
the waveform being measured by matching the probe to the oscilloscope’s input
capacitance. Compensation should be adjusted whenever the probe is connected
to or transferred between oscilloscopes.
1. Connect the sprung hook to the oscilloscope’s CAL OUT terminal and the
ground lead to the GND terminal. Connect the cable to any input channel.
2. Turn on the input channel and press AUTO SETUP.
3. Adjust the time base and channel Volts/div settings until the signal contains
two cycles as shown below.
4. Use the trimmer tool to adjust the low-frequency trimmer located on the
BNC Compensation Box until you achieve a flat-topped square wave like the
center illustration in the figure below.
CAUTION: Do not apply excessive pressure. The tip of the trimmer
is made of plastic and can break easily.

Cleaning
•Clean only the exterior of the probe, cables, and accessories. Use a soft
cotton cloth moistened with a mild detergent and water solution. Do not
allow any portion of the probe to be submerged at any time.
•Dry the probe and accessory thoroughly before attempting to make any
voltage measurement.
•Do not subject the probe to solvents or solvent fumes as these can cause
deterioration of the probe body, cables, and accessories.
