Oscilloscope Probe Kit
Introduction
The PROBE60S is a passive high impedance oscilloscope probe designed and calibrated f or use

on instruments having an input impedance of 1 Mohm shunted by 25pF. However, it may be
compensated for use with instruments having an input capacitance of 10 - 35 pF. The probe
incorporates a two position slide switch in the head which selects attenuation of X1, X10 position.

Maintenance
Before dismantling any part of the probe, make sure it is disconnected from any voltage source.

The probe head can be detached from the cable assembly by unplugging the push fit BNC
connector on the probe head. This permits replacement of the cable or head assembly should
either part become damaged. T he measuring t ip is also replaceable. To replace a brok en tip, hold
the black insulating part of the tip with pliers and pull it away from the probe head. Replace with a
new tip taking care to align with the inner contact .

Compensation Adjustment
In order to obtain the corr ect division ratio with each

oscilloscope, the attenuation network needs to be
adjusted. To compensate the probe to your
oscilloscope, apply a 1kHz square wave to the
probe tip, or connect to the cal socket on the
oscilloscope to display a few cycles of the
waveform.
And adjust the trimmer locat ed in t he BNC connector for a flat- topped square wave.
