A number of other brands sell probes from the same OEM as the ZP03, with compatible accessories. I believe this is OEM is http://www.hktexas.hk/en/index.html RS used to sell the Lecroy version of the accessory kit for a _very_ low price, but unfortunately it has since gone up by ~8.5x! See here: https://www.eevblog.com/forum/testgear/new-killer-scope-a-true-game-changer-from-rs-rtb2002-rtb2004/msg1200931/#msg1200931 (pic in my post is accurate as to what I got, RS pic is missing stuff) |

ZP10 is definitely as rebranded PMK 855-711-A01, but ZP03 is a different OEM. |

Thanks for all the good ideas on how to second source a low impedance ground clip. I am though stunned how a name brand Scope Manufacturer cripples it's scopes by removing a Part that was essential in probing for many decades. Why should one keep buying pricy name brand stuff if the "Stuff" cannot provide a basic functionality. The whole point of buying it is that you can be sure "it works". Or at least that is the way it was and should be. Yes i can make my own, yes i can buy one but then there is no point in spending 5k€ for a scope in the first place. I can get a Scope that doesn't work for much less. And yes it is that critical. Getting a 200MHz Scope without a proper possibility to ground the Probe means the damned thing doesn't work as described. Why? Well a quite good summary can be found here: http://teledynelecroy.com/doc/passive-probe-ground-lead-effects The thing that gets me most is that they seem to get away with that, and that i'm seeem to be one of the fews that actually do care. |

Cripples the scope!!! My god the horror, and all just to save a few cents. R&S is the worst company ever! Sure, (if this is not just a one off error) they probably should include them, if for no other reason than to keep customers like you happy. I’m sure it wasn’t a cost cutting measure since these things surely cost them pennies. Most likely it was a trivial oversight or they assumed people buying such a scope would know they can make their own, better, and custom to the job at hand, in less than a minute. I have no idea why anyone would go to effort to source and buy something that can be made so easily and cheaply. |

Are you sure it's deliberately not included rather than just missing from your one? |
