1. Set the Probe option attenuation in the channel menu to 10X. Set the switch to
10X on the probe and connect the probe to channel 1 on the oscilloscope. If you
use the probe hook-tip, ensure a proper connection by firmly inserting the tip
onto the probe.
2. Attach the probe tip to the PROBE COMP～3V connector and the reference
lead to the PROBE COMP Ground connector. Display the channel and then
push the “AUTO” button.
3. Check the shape of the displayed waveform.

4. If necessary, adjust your probe. Repeat as necessary.
Note:
When the attenuation switch is set to 1X, the probe
limits the
bandwidth of the oscilloscope to 6MHz (according to Probe spec).
To use the full bandwidth of the oscilloscope, be sure to set the
switch to 10X
