Setting Channel Display (Layout of Channels)
The measurement result for each channel is displayed in its dedicated
window (channel window). You cannot have a single window to display the
measurement results from more than one channel. This means that the
setting of the window layout determines the number of channels displayed
on screen.
The execution of measurement for each channel does not
depend on how the channel is displayed (channels that are not
displayed can be measured). For information on executing

The procedure for setting the window layout is as follows:
1. Press Display > Allocate Channels.
2. Press the desired softkey to select the window layout.

The window frame of the active channel is displayed brighter than the
