If your probe requires cleaning, disconnect

it from the instrument and clean it with

mild detergent and water. Make sure the

probe is completely dry before connecting

it to the instrument.

Safety and Regulatory Information

The CE mark is a registered trademark of the

European Community. ISM GRP 1-A denotes the

instrument is an Industrial Scientific and Medical

Group 1 Class A product. ICES/NMB-001

indicates product compliance with the Canadian

Interference-Causing Equipment Standard.

IEC Measurement category II is for measurements

performed on circuits directly connected to the

low voltage installation. Example. Household

appliances portable tools, and similar equipment.

CSA is the Canadian certification mark to

demonstrate compliance with the Safety requirements.

CAT II

Indoor Use Only. Do not operate in wet / damp /

explosive environments. Keep product surfaces

dry and clean.

To avoid personal injury or to prevent fire or

damage to this product or products connected to

it, review and comply with the following safety

precautions. Be aware that if you use this product

in a manner not specified, the protection

that the product provides may be impaired.

The probe cable is a sensitive part of the probe

and, therefore, you should be careful not to

damage it through excessive bending or pulling.

Avoid any mechanical shocks to the product to

guarantee accurate performance and protection.

Some of the probe tips / accessories are very

sharp. You should handle these with care to

avoid personal injury.

Use only Grounded instruments. Do not connect

the probe’s ground lead to a potential other than

earth ground. Always make sure that the probe

and oscilloscope are grounded properly.

Connect the probe to the oscilloscope and

connect the ground lead to earth ground before

connecting the probe to the circuit under test.

Disconnect the probe input and the probe ground

lead from the circuit under test before

disconnecting the probe from the oscilloscope.

Do not use the probe assembly if the red wear

indicator in the cable has become visible.

*N2140-92002*

The Keysight N2140A 200 MHz and N2142A 75 MHz passive

probes are high impedance probes with switchable attenuation

ratio (1:1 and 10:1). These are compatible with the Keysight

InfiniiVision x-series oscilloscopes or similar oscilloscopes with

1 Mohm BNC input.

The BNC connector of these probes has a

pin hole without a pin. This is as per the

design and does not indicate any damage

or fault in the probe.

These probes have been designed and calibrated for use

with instruments having an input impedance of 1M Ω

paralleled by 20pF. However, these may be recalibrated for

use with instruments having an input capacitance of

15 to 30pF.

Adjusting Probes for Low-Frequency (LF) Compensation

The probe should be adjusted for LF compensation when it is

connected to an oscilloscope input for the first time. LF

compensation matches the probe cable capacitance to the

oscilloscope input capacitance. This matching assures good

amplitude accuracy from DC to the upper bandwidth limit

frequencies. A poorly compensated probe clearly influences

the overall system performance (probe and oscilloscope)

and introduces measurement errors resulting in inaccurate

readings and distorted waveforms.

To perform LF compensation:

1 Connect the probe to the oscilloscope’s front-panel

calibration output (a square wave label is usually seen near

this output).

2 Use the supplied adjustment tool to adjust the LF

compensation to an optimum square wave response as

shown in the figure below.

For optimal probe compensation:

- Allow the oscilloscope (with the probe connected) to warm

up for at least 30 minutes.

- Repeat the compensation steps if the ambient temperature

in the area in which the oscilloscope is being used changes

by more than 5 degrees C.

- Do NOT push down on the adjustment screw when engaging

or turning this screw.
