Removing and Replacing Assemblies
Reassemble Probe
The ground screw passes through the top cover and PC board and screws into the ground
block.
1If replacing the PC board, remove the input connectors from the old board and
put them on the new one.
2If replacing the cable, note the orientation of the probe clamp ring on the old
cable, remove the ring and put it on the new cable.
3Connect the cable connector to the PC board.
4Solder the two connections of the coaxial cable to the PC board.
On a new probe cable, the conductors of the coaxial cable are connected by a heavy
single wire. Cut the heavy wire so it matches the wire on the cable that was removed.
5Assemble the PC assembly into the top cover.
The large hybrid is exposed when the assembly is in the top cover. The figure on the
below shows the sequence of the ground screw, top cover, PC board, and ground block.

as shown in the figure above.
6Replace the bottom cover.
aPosition the cable strain relief and with one hand, hold the cable and top cover
together.
