Menu Structure - Display
The parameters are set in the menus. Menus are called either via the function blocks in the diagram or
by means of the setup menu key. The menus are displayed on top of the block diagram. If the menu
b
uttons assign menu-specific functions to the softkeys, the Winbar is hidden.
This section describes the menu structure. Menu operation is described in section "Menu Operation",
page 3.18, the setting of parameters in section "Setting Parameters", page 3.11.
The menus are in Windows format. They differ in details depending on their function but they consist of
the same main elements.
Menu header
The header line contains the name of the menu
(e.g. Frequency / Phase) and the button for closing
the menu. The button can be operated with the
mouse. For operation from the front panel, the
CLOSE key can be used.
The remaining menu area is variable and comprises various fields for setting parameters.
Each of the setting fields is assigned a parameter name. The kind of setting varies depending on the
parameter to be set.
Entry field
A numeric value (e.g. frequency offset) or an
alpha-numeric value (e.g. file name) can be
entered in this field.
Selection field
The
button indicates that a selection can be
made from a list. The fold-down selection list is
displayed below the selection field. Depending on
the number of entries, the full list or only part of it
is shown.
One entry at a time can be selected from the list.
If an item is not available for selection, it is printed
in grey and cannot be accessed.
