System Setup and Menu Controls
As well as the menu buttons and knobs described on the
previous pages, the System Setup controls include the menu-
entry buttons and others for copying displays, reporting
instrument status and restarting multiple-acquisition
operations.
The RETURN button is used to go back to the preceding
displayed menu group. Or it returns the display to a higher-level, or
primary menu. But when the display is at the highest possible menu
level, the button switches off that menu.
Each of the dark-gray menu-entry buttons activates a major set of
on-screen menus (those represented in the other control groups are
described in the following chapters, along with the other
elements in the groups).
The DISPLAY button provides entry to the
“DISPLAY SETUP” group of menus, controlling display
mode, grids, intensities, Dot Join and Persistence menus.
See Chapter 11.
The UTILITIES button gives access to the
“UTILITIES” menus, controlling hardcopy setups, GPIB
addresses and special modes of operation. Chapter 12.
The WAVEFORM STORE button
accesses the
“STORE W’FORM” menus, used for storing waveforms
to internal or external memory. Chapter 13.
Whereas, WAVEFORM RECALL
calls up
“RECALL W’FORM”: menus for retrieving waveforms
stored in internal or external memory. Chapter 13.
CURSORS/MEASURE
offers up the “CURSORS” Setup
menus, used for making precise cursor measurements on traces,
and “MEASURE”, for precise parameter measurements. Chapter
14.
