Positioner Tip (Browser)
The Dxx30-PT positioner tip (browser) has a very small form factor with very low mass. It is a good
all-around browsing or mounted solution for probing in areas with a high concentration of test
points or limited free space to fit a probe.
Various attachments and extenders are supplied with the positioner tip, allowing it to be easily held
while browsing or connected to a mounting device. Using these attachments, the tip can be
positioned in many different ways to make probing possible in tight geometries.
Wand Tripod EZ-Probe Mount
Rotating the thumbwheel adjusts the tip spacing from 0 to 3.5 mm (0 to 0.14") in a direction
perpendicular to the thumbwheel rotation. There is a positive stop on the thumbwheel to prevent it
from being rotated too far in either direction.
The tip is spring-mounted to accommodate 0.6mm of Z-Axis compliance. This aids in applications
where more than one Dxx30-PT is required to make measurements in a crowded area and the tips
need to be mounted at an angle to the board under test.
Avoid applying excessive lateral pressure on the tip as breakage may result. Do not use the tip to
scrape the circuit. If the tip does break, it may be replaced in the socket. If the socket also breaks, a
new socket can be soldered onto the tip. See "Replacing Spring-Loaded Tips and Tip Sockets on the
Positioner Tip" on page 34 for instructions on replacing tips and sockets.
