Terminating Entries - Setting Parameters
Variations by means of the rotary knob are immediately set, e.g. RF frequency variation.
All other parameter settings have to be confirmed by a pressing the rotary knob or one of the unit keys
(see also section "Selecting a Unit", page 3.15).
Some settings require additional confirmation with the Accept button. This is the case when it is useful
to first enter a few values and to confirm them together, e.g. when network settings are made. Settings
not yet confirmed by Accept are displayed in the menu on a yellow background. This indicates that the
currently displayed values do not represent the desired signal.
All settings of instrument functions that can be switched on and off are calculated and effective only
after this function has been switched on.
This applies to most settings on the R&S SMC. An exception is, for instance, the frequency variation of
the reference oscillator, which is immediately set.
