Probe calibration procedures

The 86100 DCA has a built-in calibration process to

compensate for probe attenuation and offsets. The probe

calibration is achieved by attaching the probe tip to a

known DC signal that is available from the oscilloscope

mainframe. The process is Calibration/All calibrations/CH

‘X’ Probe compensation (for the channel the 83496A/B

output is routed to.).

For probe compensation with plug-in modules that do not

include a probe supply outlet (86105B, 86105C, 86117A,

86118A) the calibration procedure is similar. However,

if there is a voltage offset, it must be compensated for

manually (Setup/Channels/Channel X/Advanced with

the attenuation factor adjusted to account for signal loss

in splitting and/or probe voltage division).
