Using the configuration keys
The configuration keys (unshifted MENU keys) let you rapidly access the most
frequently used multimeter features. Table 2-5 shows each key, the
corresponding multimeter command, and the function of each. (These functions
are discussed in detail in Chapter 3 and Chapter 4.)
Pressing the shifted front panel Reset key performs the power-on sequence
which has the same effect as cycling the multimeter’s power. This destroys
any stored reading and compressed subprograms, sets the power-on SRQ
bit in the status register (these functions are discussed later in this manual),
resets the A/D Converter reference frequency and performs the power-on
self test. Executing the RESET command from the alphabetic command
menu (MENU keys) returns the multimeter to the power-on state but does
not perform the power-on sequence. The MENU keys are discussed later in
this chapter.
