The Front Panel and the User Interface
The first thing to do with a new oscilloscope is to know its front panel. This chapter
helps to be familiar with the layout of the knobs and keys and how to use them. Read
the chapter carefully before further operations.
Figure 1-1, Front Panel; the knobs are used most often and are similar to the knobs
on other oscilloscopes. The buttons allow you to use some of the functions directly
but also bring up soft button menus on the screen, which enable the access to many
measurement features associated with advanced functions, mathematics, and
reference or to run control features.
