Controlling the 5071A From the Front-Panel
You can customize the 5071A’s operation by performing a number of tasks after the
instrument is running normally (see page 10). When you’ve completed most of these
tasks, no further operator intervention will usually be required. Some of these
operations can cause the instrument to gain or lose time and are clearly marked with
cautions. The suggested operator tasks are:
Setting the Output-Port Frequency
Setting the Clock
Monitoring Status
Reading and Managing the Event Log
Steering the Output Frequency
Using Utility Features
Configuring the Instrument
Connecting a Printer
Disabling the Internal-Standby Battery
More information for using the menus to check instrument status can be
found in Chapter 3 of this manual.
