This is a discontinued product. The N2796A active probe is the recommended replacement product. The N2796A requires the AutoProbe interface on the scope with which it is to be used.
The 1156A 1.5 GHz Active Probe is a probe solution for high-frequency applications. This probe is compatible with the AutoProbe Interface which completely configures the Infiniium series of oscilloscopes for the probe. The Infiniium family of oscilloscopes provides both power and offset control to the active probes through the front panel connector. Probe offset is changed by adjusting the vertical offset control on the Infiniium oscilloscope. The control should be adjusted to center your waveform within the 5 volt peak-to-peak (12 volts peak-to-peak for slow waveforms) dynamic range of the probe.
