Dialog Boxes
The dialog area occupies the bottom one-third of the screen. To expand the signal display area, you can minimize
each dialog box by touching the Close tab at the right of the dialog box.
Alternate Access Methods
The instrument often gives you more than one way to access dialogs and menus.
Mouse and Keyboard Operation
In the procedures we focus on touch-screen operation, but if you have a mouse connected to the instrument, you
can also click on objects. Likewise, if you have a keyboard connected, you can use it instead of the virtual
keyboard provided by the instrument.
Tool Bar Buttons
The procedures also focus on the use of the menu bar at the top of the screen to access dialogs and menus.
However, on several dialogs common functions are accessible from a row of buttons that save you a step or two
in accessing their dialogs. For example, at the bottom of the channel setup dialog, these buttons perform the
following functions:
Calls up the Measure menu. You can then select a parameter from this menu without leaving the
channel setup dialog. The parameter automatically appears below the grid.
Creates a zoom trace of the channel trace whose dialog is currently displayed.
Calls up the Math menu. You can then select a math function from this menu without leaving the
channel setup dialog. A math trace of the channel whose dialog is currently open is automatically
displayed.
Loads the channel trace into the next available memory location (M1 to M4).
Automatically performs a vertical scaling that fits the waveform into the grid.
Automatically moves the channel trace whose dialog is currently open onto the next grid. If you
have only one grid displayed, a new grid will be created automatically, and the trace moved.
Another example is these buttons that appear at the bottom of the Measure Px dialogs. Each button opens a
menu from which to choose a math trace (F1 to Fx The number of math traces available depends on the software
options loaded on your oscilloscope. See specifications.) to display the functions named in the buttons:
By using these buttons you can remain in the Measure dialog to set up other options.
