Probe Grounds You can ground the probes in one of two ways. You can ground the
probes with the pod ground only; however, the ground path won’t be the
same length as the signal path through the probe. If your probe ground
path must be the same as your signal path, use the short ground lead
(probe ground). The probe ground lead connects to the molded probe body
via a pin and socket. You can then use a grabber or grounded pins on your
target system the same way as the pod ground.
Note For improved signal fidelity, use a probe ground for every four probes in
addition to the pod ground.
If you need additional probe ground leads, order HP part number
01650-82103 from your nearest Hewlett-Packard sales office.
