Mode - Agilent Technologies X Series Manual

Mode

The Mode key allows you to select the available measurement applications or "Modes". Modes are a
collection of measurement capabilities packaged together to provide an instrument personality that is
specific to your measurement needs. Each application software product is ordered separately by Model
Number and must be licensed to be available. Once an instrument mode is selected, only the commands
that are valid for that mode can be executed.
Key operation can be different between modes. The information displayed in Help
NOTE
is about the current mode.
To access Help for a different Mode you must first exit Help (by pressing the
Cancel (Esc) key). Then select the desired mode and re-access Help.
For more information on Modes, preloading Modes, and memory requirements for Modes, see
Information" on page 498
