You use the Input field to select the input source for the channel parameters
displayed on the Channel menu. Each channel may be set independent of all
other channels.
Input Identification
When you touch the Input field, a pop-up menu appears that shows the input
channels for the module. The input channels are shown as a letter/number
combination: A1, for example. The letter A identifies the slot number in the
mainframe which contains the card. The number 1 identifies the input
connector on the rear of the card. For a two-card oscilloscope module, A1
identifies the card location as slot A and the input location as
1.

Likewise, A2 identifies the card location as slot A and the input location as
2.

For oscilloscope modules installed in an HP 16500B/C Logic Analysis System
mainframe, two inputs are available for each card.
At system turn on, the Input field defaults to the lowest lettered and
numbered input for the module selected. For example, if a module is
installed in slot A, the Input field will display A1.
