2-9 Data Entry
Numeric Values
Numeric values are changed using the rotary knob, arrow keys, or the keypad. Pressing one
of the main menu keys (hard keys) displays a list of submenus on the right side of the touch
screen. When the value on a soft key (submenu key) is displayed in red, it is ready for
changing. When using the rotary knob or arrow keys the changing value is shown on the
submenu and in red on the graticule. When using the keypad, the new value is shown in red
on the graticule and the submenu changes to Units. Selecting a unit for the new value
completes the entry.
Parameter Setting
Pop-up list boxes or edit boxes are used to provide selection lists and selection editors. Scroll
through a list of items or parameters with the arrow keys, the rotary knob, or the touch
screen. These list boxes and edit boxes frequently display a range of possible values or limits
for possible values.
Finalize the input by pressing the Enter key. At any time before finalizing the input, press the
escape (Esc) key to abort the change and retain the previously existing setting.
Cable parameters can be added to list boxes by creating them in Line Sweep Tools (LST).
Signal Standard parameters can be added to list boxes by creating them in Master Software
Tools (MST).
