AutoColor ID and Power Control Indicators 

The AutoColor ID LED, built into the platform/cable assembly, indicates various states of the probe-
oscilloscope combination.

l

When the probe is connected to a Teledyne LeCroy X-Stream oscilloscope, the LED
illuminates in the default color of the channel to which the probe is connected.

l

When the probe tip module is compatible with the platform/cable assembly to which it is
connected, the green LED illuminates for about one second after the probe is connected to
the oscilloscope.

l

When the probe tip module is incompatible with the platform/cable assembly, the red LED
illuminates, for example, when a amplifier is connected to a WL-PLINK platform/cable
assembly.

AutoZero

WaveLink probes incorporate an AutoZero function to remove any DC offset from the probe. This
function is available when the probe is used with Teledyne LeCroy's X-Stream oscilloscopes, and
must be invoked by the user.

After several minutes of warm-up, or when the probe is exposed to a large shift in ambient
temperature, some DC offset may occur, and an AutoZero cycle should be initiated.

Start an AutoZero cycle by removing the probe from the circuit under test and touching the on-
screen AutoZero button to remove output offset drift.
