Connecting to a Signal
WavePro 7000A series and the DDA 3000 have LeCroy’s ProBus interface connectors. ProBus
compatible probes may be directly connected to the input connectors. The ProBus connector is
also directly compatible with standard male BNC connectors. Passive probes and cables
terminated with BNC connectors may be directly connected to the inputs.
WaveMaster, SDA series, and DDA 5005A utilize a ProLink interface, which supports the higher
bandwidths these instruments are capable of measuring. ProLink compatible probes may be
directly connected to the front panel connectors. LeCroy's ProLink Adapters (LPA) give you the
ability to connect cables terminated in SMA or BNC connectors to the instrument.

Note: When connecting a lower bandwidth ProBus active probe to the instrument, be sure to use a ProLink BMA-to-BNC
adapter (item 3 in the figure). Do not plug the probe directly into the front panel connector (item 1) without an adapter.
