To use softkey menu items
To use softkey menu items
The fields in the softkey menu areas are of three basic types. To see how they work, press the
Channel 1 key at the bottom of the Vertical area and press softkeys to see the effect. Then,
press the Setup key in the Horizontal area and do the same. The three softkey types are:
Toggle, in which you toggle between two states each time the softkey is pushed.
The two states might be On and Off, for example.
One in which several selections are available, and each time the softkey is pushed a
new selection is made. The selections are made in a left to right and top to bottom
sequence. The active selection is highlighted.
One in which a value is either highlighted or dimmed. To highlight a value, press the
softkey next to it. Then, the highlighted value may be changed with either the knob
or the numeric keys in the Entry/Measure area.
You may change some values even though they are not highlighted by using the knobs in the
Vertical and Horizontal areas. When these values are highlighted, you may also change them
using the knob and numeric keys in the Entry/Measure area.
To save a setup to memory
Pressthe save _ key in the Setup area.
Press a key between 1 and 9 on the Entry/Measure keypad to select the memory
location for the setup.
You can store nine setups in the oscilloscope’s internal nonvolatile memory.
To recall a setup from memory
Press the Recall key inthe Setup area.
Press the key on the Entry/Measure keypad corresponding to the memory location
of the setup you want to recall.
The previous setup is always stored in memory location 0. If you want to return to the
previous setup, press the Recall key and the 0 key.
If you have many setups that you use and want them available to load quickly, you may also store
them to disk. See the HP 54520 and 54540 Series Oscilloscopes User's Reference for storing
setups to disk.
