NOTE.
Some of the controls that are covered in this section are option-dependent.
For a list of the options that are installed on your instrument, press the CONFIG
button. In the configuration menu, select the Utilities submenu. The View
Instrument Options entry lists the options installed on your instrument.
You control the instrument on three levels:
Frequently changed settings. The front-panel buttons control the most
commonly changed parameters, such as which measurement appears in each
tile. The knobs are used to adjust levels and make selections.
Tile-specific settings. Pop-up menus control parameters that are specific to
the tile in which they are displayed. The pop-up menus control less frequently
changed parameters such as the waveform display mode (for example,
changing the waveform display mode from RGB to YPbPr). To display
a pop-up menu, press and hold the desired display or function button for
about a second.
Instrument-wide settings. The parameters in the Configuration menu are
instrument-wide settings. The configuration menu controls settings that are
changed only occasionally, such as changing waveform color or setting the
network address.
Some controls are global and affect all tiles, while other controls only affect the
active tile. Generally, if a control is configured by front-panel buttons or by a
pop-up menu, it is tile-specific. (Exceptions are the Input buttons and all audio
features, both of which are global.) If a control is configured by the CONFIG
menu, selections are usually global.
