Dual Channel Operation
General
Dual channel instruments have additional capabilities which allow the channels to be connected in
various ways. All of the options are available from the Dual Channel menu which is accessed by
pressing the Utility key. This presents several further menus which allow control of instrument and
system capabilities not available directly from the menus described so far.
This section explains the options available by pressing the
Dual Ch
soft-key; the options
accessed via the other soft-keys are described in the Utility Menu section.
Pressing the
Dual Ch
soft-key gives access to the dual channel capabilities of the instrument.
This menu is not available on a single channel instrument.
Display Presentation
Pressing the
Display
soft-key will cycle through the possible options. These options present the
instrument parameters in different ways on the display.
The default layout is

as seen above. This presents the Parameters box and
Graph box for the selected channel together on the screen. Pressing the
Display
soft-key will
then switch to
Params Ch1 – Params Ch2
as shown below.
