Quick Start Guide
WARNING
Unless specifically stated in the product User's Guide, PicoScope
oscilloscopes are not designed to measure hazardous live signals as defined
by EN 61010. To prevent electric shock, do not attempt to measure voltages
outside of the limits shown in the table above or the specified full scale
measurement range, whichever is lower.
WARNING
To prevent injury or death, the oscilloscope must not be directly connected
to the mains (line power). To measure mains voltages, use a differential
isolating probe specifically rated for mains use, such as the TA041 listed on
the Pico website.
CAUTION
Exceeding the overvoltage protection range on any connector can cause
permanent damage to the oscilloscope and other connected equipment.
CAUTION
When using the PicoScope 4224 IEPE oscilloscope, to prevent damage
ensure that no voltage is present when selecting IEPE interface mode, and
no voltage is applied when in use.
Grounding
WARNING
The oscilloscope's ground connection through the USB cable is for
measurement purposes only. The oscilloscope does not have a protective
safety ground.
WARNING
Never connect the ground input (chassis) to any electrical power source. To
prevent personal injury or death, use a voltmeter to check that there is no
significant AC or DC voltage between the oscilloscope ground and the point
to which you intend to connect it.
CAUTION
Applying a voltage to the ground input is likely to cause permanent damage
to the oscilloscope, the attached computer, and other equipment.
CAUTION
To prevent measurement errors caused by poor grounding, always use the
high-quality USB cable supplied with the oscilloscope.

WARNING
To prevent injury or death, where applicable use only the power cord and
adaptor supplied with the product. These are approved for the voltage and
plug configuration in your country.
Note: not all oscilloscopes require a power cord.
