Fig. 2-8 Running trend plot.
This mode is used for observing periodic fluctuations or possible trends. Each plot terminates (if HOLD is activated) or
restarts (if RUN is activated) after the set number of samples. The trend plot is always autoscaled based on the
measured data, starting with 0 at restart. Limits are shown as horizontal lines if enabled.
Remote
When the instrument is controlled from the GPIB bus or the USB bus, the operating mode changes to Remote,
indicated by the label REM on the display. All front panel keys except CANCEL are then disabled. See also page 2-8 for
more information on this key.
3.3.10. Entering Numeric Values
Sometimes you may want to enter constants and limits in a value input menu, for instance one of those that you can
reach when you press the MATH/LIMIT key.
You may also want to select a value that is not in the list of fixed values available by pressing the UP/DOWN arrow
keys. One example is Meas Time under SETTINGS.
A similar situation arises when the desired value is too far away to reach conveniently by incrementing or decrementing
the original value with the UP/DOWN arrow keys. One example is the Trig Lvl setting as part of the INPUT A (B)
settings.
Whenever it is possible to enter numeric values, the keys marked with 0-9;. (decimal point) and ± (stands for Change
Sign)take on their alternative numeric meaning.
It is often convenient to enter values using the scientific format. For that purpose, the rightmost softkey is marked EE
(stands for Enter Exponent), making it easy to switch between the mantissa and the exponent. Press EXIT/OK to store
the new value or CANCEL to keep the old one.
3.3.11. Hard Menu Keys
These keys are mainly used for opening fixed menus from which further selections can be made by means of the
softkeys or the cursor/select keys.
