Tab Down key
Advances the highlighted bar (reverse image) to the next
available “tab stop.” A “tab stop” indicates an item that can be
acted on further, such as a measurement or a setting option. Tab
stops generally follow a left-to-right or top-to-bottom sequence.
When the last tab stop is reached in the main menu, the next
key press returns to the first stop. The key is also used to select
alpha/numeric characters in the edit mode.
Tab Up key
Performs the same function as the Tab Down key except in
reverse order. Tab stops follow a right-to-left or bottom-to-top
sequence.
Enter key
Activates the highlighted item. If the item can be set on or off,
pressing the key toggles the option between on and off. When
entering an active mode from the main menu, the active mode
is displayed with the highlight on the first required operation in
the mode.
Escape key
Backs up the instrument screen one menu level. For example, if
an option or value is being modified at the time the key is
pressed, the edits are aborted and the previous screen or menu
appears. The only exception to this is when the Enter key is
used to toggle an option. In this case, the Escape key exits the
menu without aborting the setting.
Main Menu key
Returns the instrument screen to the main menu. This is a quick
exit out of any mode. If any option or value is being modified
at the time the key is pressed, the edits are aborted and the
previous setting reinstated.
Read key
If activated in configuration, initiates a reading when pressed.
Refer to Setting Instrument Configuration, Section Four for
additional information.
