7. Softkeys

The softkeys are eight keys located along the right-hand edge of the LCD display. Pressing
a hardkey displays a menu of labels that define the functions of the softkeys. For more
information on softkey labels, refer to "5. Softkey Label Area" on page 54.

8. Color LCD Display

Displays nearly all information necessary for using the Agilent 4294A, including
measurement results (trace data), instrument status, analysis results, and softkey labels.

9. Power Switch

on the instrument with a power-on setting file (AUTOREC.STA) residing on the flash
memory (nonvolatile memory disk) or on a floppy disk inserted in the floppy disk drive,
the file is automatically loaded, and the settings contained in the file are restored.
