To install the TekConnect Probe Interface Module Extender Cable into the front
panel of the sampling oscilloscope, perform the following tasks:

CAUTION. To prevent damage to the sampling module, never install or remove a
module when the sampling oscilloscope is powered on or when either input
connector is left unprotected. Follow the precautions described in your sampling
module and oscilloscope manuals to avoid damage.

1.

Turn off the sampling oscilloscope using the front-panel On/Standby switch.

2.

Install the TekConnect Probe Interface Module Extender Cable connector
into any of the small sampling module compartments on the front panel of
the sampling oscilloscope. See Figure 3.

3.

Push the module in slowly with firm pressure to seat it.

4.

Tighten the hold-down screw to hold the connector in place. To remove the
connector later, loosen the hold-down screw and slide the ejector lever.

NOTE. Installing a large sampling module into a large compartment of the
sampling oscilloscope may disable channels on a small module already
installed. Refer to the documentation for the sampling oscilloscope about
compartment interaction.
