Prerequisites
1. Inst rument should be powered on. Allow the instrument
and probe 20 minutes to warm up.
Note. Probes with an attenuation factor of greater than 20X
cannot be compensated. Probes with >2% gain errors or
>50 mV offset errors cannot be com pensated.
See page 3--34 for acquisition setup and Power on the
Instrument on page 1--9.
