Using Accessories – Attaching GigaProbes™ to Tektronix Articulating Arms

Each GigaProbes™ interconnect kit includes a GigaProbes™ Micro Manipulator Adapter (part number GPMMA) that includes an Extender Adapter that can be removed or used depending on the articulating manipulator you are using. To attach the GigaProbes™ GPMMA probe holder to the PPM100, attach the Extender Adapter accessory with the provided 8-32 screw (see picture on the right).  Attach the assembly to the PPM100 probe holder using the flexible retention rings or remove the probe holder and insert the GPMMA Extender Adapter in the clamp. Using the adjustment screw, close the clamp around Extender Adapter.  To attach the GPMMA to the PPM203B, remove the Extender Adapter and use 8-32 (provided) screw and nut to attach the GPMMA directly to the end of the PPM203B.
