The Hot keys only have two options. These will not have an associated rotary knob option.
The Hot key bar at the top of the screen shows the available Hot keys with an icon representing the type of function
they perform.
For example:
In continuity measurement mode the hot keys show the following:
Hot key 1 Hot key 2 Hot key 3 Hot key 4 Hot key 5

These functions change according to the type of test you are performing. In this case, the insulation test has four
types of action:
