Quick Setup Procedure

For your convenience, a quick setup feature has been included on the ODA.
The Quick Setup key accesses a series of control panels that help you
specify the basic settings needed for making a measurement. A
measurement time estimation is provided so that you can trade off
measurement time versus the measurement settings.
The following procedure outlines the steps to make a precisely defined
measurement.
For experienced users, a detailed process can be used which provides
more flexibility than the Quick Setup procedure.
