2.2 Maximum input and output ratings
Observe all terminal ratings and warnings marked on the product. The marked voltage is the
maximum that may be applied across that terminal without risk of personal injury or damage to the
instrument.
The table below and markings on the instrument indicate the full-scale measurement range
and overvoltage protection range for the PicoScope 2000 Series oscilloscopes. The full-scale
measurement range is the maximum voltage that can be accurately measured by the instrument.
The overvoltage protection range is the maximum voltage that will not damage the instrument.
To prevent electric shock, do not attempt to connect to or measure voltages outside of the
specified full‑scale measurement range.
Full scale
measurement range
±20 V
Signals exceeding the voltage limits in the table below are defined as "hazardous live" by
EN 61010.
±60 V DC
To prevent injury or death, do not directly connect the oscilloscope to hazardous live voltages.
To prevent electric shock, take all necessary safety precautions when working on equipment
where hazardous live voltages may be present.
The following accessories can safely connect to and allow measurement of hazardous live
voltages, up to either the instrument's full-scale measurement voltage multiplied by the applicable
attenuation ratio or the accessory's marked maximum operating voltage, whichever is the lower:
• P2036 and P2056 10:1 passive high-impedance oscilloscope probes
• All Pico Technology-supplied high-voltage active probes
Accessories suited for connection to hazardous live voltages are clearly marked with their
maximum allowable voltage and, where applicable, their CAT rating.
