Table 3-1 Factory-set color assignment of soft keys
Softkey color Meaning
gray Softkey switched off
green Softkey switched on
red Softkey switched on and data entry active
These colors can be changed by the user as desired in the DISP - CONFIG DISPLAY menu.
A softkey is switched on or off by pressing the respective hardkey (see following section "Setting the
Parameters").
Softkeys are masked out, too, if the functionality which they represent is not available. A distinction has
to be made between two cases:
• If an instrument function depends on an option, and if this option is not fitted, the associated softkey is
masked out,.
• If the instrument function is not available temporarily due to specific settings, the softkey is displayed
without the 3D frame.
The label
on the right lower corner of the softkey area indicates that a side menu is available. The
side menu is called by pressing the NEXT key.
Hotkey Area
Hotkeys are allocated to the eight keys on the bottom margin of the screen. They change between
modes and the active diagrams.
The menu only shows the hotkeys which are actually used:
