WARNING
Refer to Manual. Condition or practice could result
in injury or loss of life.
DOUBLE INSULATION
PROTECTIVE (EARTH) TERMINAL
To avoid electric shock, keep fingers behind the probe’s finger
guard during use.
Rated for indoor use only. Do not operate where conductive
pollutants may be present.
Terms and Symbols
The following symbols appear on the product or in its documentation:
Introduction
Teledyne LeCroy PP017 and PP018 are passive high impedance voltage
oscilloscope probes designed and calibrated for use with general purpose
oscilloscopes having an input impedance of 1 MΩ shunted by 16 pF.
However, they may be compensated for use with instruments having an
input capacitance between 10 and 30 pF. They are compatible with
oscilloscopes that automatically detect probe attenuation and adjust their
readout accordingly.

General Safety Information
Observe generally accepted safety procedures in addition to those
listed here to avoid personal injury or damage to equipment.
overall safety of any system incorporating this accessory is the
responsibility of the 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/disconnect probes while 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. Observe all terminal ratings on the
oscilloscope before connecting. Consult the oscilloscope product manual
for further ratings information.
Always comply with the Voltage vs. Frequency Derating Curve.
Do not remove probe casing. Touching exposed connections may result in
electric shock.
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.

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.
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.

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.
Low Frequency (LF)
1. Apply a 1 kHz square wave to the probe or connect to the
oscilloscope’s calibrator output.
2. Adjust the LF trimmer (left) until you achieve a flat-topped square
wave as in the center of the bottom illustration.

High Frequency (HF)
High frequency should rarely require adjustment. However, if adjustment is
required:
1. Apply a 1 MHz square wave to the probe (< 0.7 ns rise-time).
2. Adjust the HF trimmer (right) on the PP017 probe body, or first the
HF2 then the HF1 trimmers on the PP018 BNC Compensation Box,
until you achieve a flat-topped, square wave as in the center of the
bottom illustration.
