2-8 Parameter Setting
Pop-up list boxes, edit boxes, and dialog boxes are used to provide selection lists and selection
editors. Scroll through a list of items or parameters with the arrow keys or the rotary knob.
Select numerical values by scrolling with the arrow keys or rotary knob or by entering the
digits directly from the number keypad. These list boxes and edit boxes frequently display a
range of possible values or limits for possible values.
Finalize the input by pressing the rotary knob or 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). Refer to Chapter 8, “Anritsu Tool Box” for a brief overview of these software
tools.
2-9 Text Entry
When entering text (as when saving a measurement) the soft key menu for Text Entry displays
the characters (alphabet, hyphen, and underscore) in groups of 6 letters per soft key.
Characters can be entered by using the rotary knob, the arrow keys, or the soft keys.
The rotary knob scrolls through the characters in a pop-up window and is pressed to select
each character in sequence.
Alternatively, press the abc/def soft key (for example) to open another soft key menu with
a separate key for each of these letters. The menu returns to the complete character set after
each individual letter is entered.
Use the arrow keys to navigate within a name or character string. Use the Shift key for
capital letters. Press the Enter key or the rotary knob to finalize a text entry.
