Using Color
With the HP 54620C color logic analyzer, you can select any of the
seven available color palettes to assign colors to channels, cursors,
stored waveforms, and text. You can assign each channel one of four
waveform colors.
The seven color palettes allow additional customization, which allows
you to easily distinguish between channel waveforms. In addition,
when making measurements on a channel, wherever the channel
number appears on screen, it is highlighted in the selected color.
The color palettes are individually named, and you can choose the
palette that best suits your needs. You can change from the Default
palette to any of the following:
• Alternate 1 works well for people who are colorblind.
• The colors in Alternate 2 are compatible with those used in
HP 545XX-series oscilloscopes.
• Alternate 3 sets the cursors to yellow.
• Inverse 1 works well for hard copies.
• Inverse 2 works well for overhead transparencies.
• A Monochrome palette is also available.
In each palette, different colors are used for cursors, waveforms,
softkeys, and Autostore. The background is always black, unless you
select the Inverse palettes, which use a white background. Softkeys
and the grid are always in white, except in the Inverse palettes, which
set them to black.
