► Instrument Power

Power Switch This turns the entire function generator either on or off.

► Interface Buttons

These buttons control the function generator's onscreen interface.
Top Menu The AFG3000 Series has a menu-based system for viewing or changing various instrument
settings. The menus use a branching tree design, so this button returns to the top-most
level of the menu tree.
Each press of this button goes back one level in the menu tree.
Bezel Bezel buttons are used to select bezel menu options that are displayed in an adjoining
column on the LCD screen. The actions assigned to the five Bezel buttons depend on
which menu is currently active.
View The function generator can display information on the LCD screen in several formats
(waveform parameter and graph, graph comparison, and waveform parameter
comparison). Each press of the View button toggles through the display formats.
