Microcomputer Control 2-14.
A microcomputer, integrated within U4, controls the various instrument functions and
drives the display. The position of the rotary switch, S1, is decoded by the
microcomputer from the three inputs F0, F1, and F2. All function modes, input ranging,
signal routing, active filter enable, a/d timing and mode are controlled by the
microcomputer.
