SHIFT
The 4
SHIFT
5 key causes the alternate function of any key pressed directly after
it to be executed.
When the 4
SHIFT
5 key is pressed, the word SHIFT will be displayed in the
display . The next key that is pressed after the 4
SHIFT
5 key will execute the
function that is indicated by the text that is above the key . As an example ,
note that MUL TIPLIER appears directly above the 4
FREQ
5 key . MUL TIPLIER is
the alternate function of the 4 FREQ 5 key . Pressing 4 SHIFT 5 , 4 FREQ 5 will enable
the frequency multiplier entry mode .
If the 4 SHIFT 5 key is pressed prior to pressing a key that has no alternate
function, SHIFT will be canceled from the display and no action will be taken
by the instrument.
If you press the 4 SHIFT 5 key accidentally , pressing it again will cancel it
without altering synthesizer operation.
Equivalent SCPI Command
There is no equivalent SCPI command for the 4 SHIFT 5 key , however , sending
the \SY ST:KEY 0" command is eectively the same as pressing the 4 SHIFT 5
key .
