This section describes the details of making measurements. Configuration options, triggers, 

reading storage, and scanning are just a few of the topics discussed. You will find this informa-
tion useful whether operating the Model 2002 from the front panel or IEEE-488 bus.

 

Multiple displays

 

Each measurement function and some operations provide “multiple displays” by using the 

bottom line of the front panel. These multiple displays provide multiple type measurements, 
show a reading in a different form, or give additional information about the reading.

A few of the frequently used multiple displays are summarized in this section. All the multi-

ple displays are shown in Table 1.

The NEXT and PREV (previous) DISPLAY keys scroll through the multiple displays for the 

selected function or operation. The multiple display mode can be cancelled by pressing and 
holding in either key.
