1. Power switch
Used for choosing between power-on and -off states of the E4981A. When
turned on, the switch lights up in yellow-green and all operating voltages are
applied to the instrument. When turned off, the switch lights up in orange and
no operating voltages are applied to the instrument.
2. LCD
The Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) displays measurement results, test conditions,
etc.
Occasionally there are missing pixels or constantly lit pixels, but this is not
a malfunction and does not affect the performance of your product.
3. Softkeys
Five softkeys are used to select measurement conditions and parameter
functions. Each softkey has a softkey label along its left side.
