Figure 2-12: Keypad buttons
The G, M, k, m, µ, n, and p are unit buttons. The A, B, C, D, E, and F buttons are
used for entering hexadecimal values.
To use the numeric keypad to enter a value, position the caret to where you want
to change a value, and then push a keypad button. If you want to enter a unit value
labeled in blue just above each numeric button, push or hold down the SHIFT
button, and then push the corresponding numeric button.
To enter or change more than one character, move the caret to the next position to
change. When you are done entering values, push the ENTER button to confirm
the changes and enter them into the instrument. For example, to enter 200.5 µs,
push 2, 0, 0, ., 5, SHIFT and 4 (µ) buttons in this order.
When you enter a value larger than the maximum value in the range for the
parameter, the parameter will be set to the maximum value. When you enter a value
smaller than the minimum value, the minimum value will be set in the parameter.
To set to the maximum or minimum value, enter a larger value or smaller value.
This is useful when you do not know the range that can be set.
Note that the current unit is always kept when you just use the ENTER after
entering digits. For example, suppose that the Clock is currently set to100.0 MS/s.
When you press the 5, 0 and ENTER buttons in this order, the Clock will be set to
50.0 MS/s. To set the Clock to 500 kS/s, press 0, ., 5 and ENTER buttons, or 5, 0,
0, SHIFT, and 8 (k) buttons in this order.
The SHIFT button enters a character
labeled in blue. Push the SHIFT button
and then push the keypad button.
The ENTER button
enters the current value
into the instrument.
The DELETE button deletes the
character to the left of the caret.
The CLR button
deletes all characters
in the current field.
