Verify the channel operation:

a.

Verify the LED on the TekConnect Probe Interface Module for the
channel under test is Green.

b.

On the sampling oscilloscope verify the probe model, serial number,
scale, dynamic range, impedance, and other information by selecting the
Utilities

> System Properties > Probes menu for the channel under test.

NOTE. The sampling oscilloscope displays the first six characters of the
TekConnect probe model and truncates the remaining characters. For
example, the oscilloscope will identify a P7350SMA probe as P7350S.

The impedance value displayed for P7330, P7350, and P7350SMA
probes is for single-ended configuration. The displayed value is one half
the value listed on the probe label.

c.

On the sampling oscilloscope, verify that the extender cable length is
listed as 1 meter in the Utilities > System Properties > Sampling
Modules

menu.

d.

On the sampling oscilloscope, verify that the signal displayed is a square
wave of approximately 1 V

p-p

with a 5 s period.

e.

Adjust the offset and verify that the display signal moves vertically to
the offset level.

f.

Adjust the vertical scale and verify that the displayed signal height
changes.

To verify functionality of the TekConnect Probe Interface Module Channel B,
perform the following tasks:

1.

Connect the probe to Channel B instead of Channel A.

2.

Repeat steps 5 through 6 above.

To verify that the oscilloscope, sampling module, or TekConnect probe is
performing properly, run the calibration, compensation, or functional verification
procedure recommended for the individual product. For detailed instructions,
refer to the user manuals that accompanied these products.
