Fig. 2-3 Design of the display
Header field
(1)The header field of the display indicates frequency and level of the RF output signal. In
the RF-sweep operating mode, the start and stop frequencies are displayed in two
lines one above the other. The start and stop levels are indicated in the LEVEL-sweep
operating mode correspondingly.
Status line
(2) The status line below describes operating mode and operating state of the instrument.
Error messages and notes for caution are also displayed in the status line.
Menu fields
(3)The indication fields below the header field are reserved for the menu representations.
The image contents of these fields change as a function of the menu selected. The
field at the left-hand display margin is occupied with the main menu, the topmost level
of the menu structure. The main menu is always faded in.
Each further field adjacent at the right contains submenus.
The field ending with the right-hand display margin shows the setting menu. In this
menu all setting values and setting states connected with the menu selected are
indicated. When accessing submenus, the higher-order menus remain in the display.
The current menu path is evident through the select marks.
Menu cursor The menu cursor shows the user at which position in the menu he is.
The position of the menu cursor is evident from the inverse notation of
the term (white characters on a black background)
Digit cursor As an underscore, the digit cursor marks the position which can be
varied by means of the rotary knob in a value indication.
Select mark The frame around a term marks current menus or valid settings in the
setting menu.
