2 User Interface
2.18 Multiscreen
–
Each Screen has a tab that contains the name of the Mode and Measurement in
the box and a number associated with the instance of that Mode. You can enter
a custom Screen name that replaces the Mode name, by going into the
Mode/Meas dialog
–
There is always one and only one selected Screen. It is indicated by a blue tab.
Only the selected Screen is actually running a measurement and updating its
display
–
The selected window in the selected screen is the context for the current menus.
It is the only window on the display with a blue border
–
As you go from screen to screen, each screen remembers the last menu that was
active in that screen and restores it as the active menu
In Multiscreen View, as in Single Screen View, tapping the blue tab or pressing the
Mode/Meas front panel key opens the "Mode/Meas/View Dialog" on page 88 which
allows you to change the Mode (or Measurement or View) being displayed in that
Screen.
