Selecting a Measurement Setup
The simplest way to setup the instrument is to select the ID
which most closely meets the requirements of the
measurement to be made and then modify it to meet your
specific needs. The instrument is delivered with a number of
permanent setups. The standard ID delivered with the
instrument is ISM. The optional IDs available are: SSA,
LOG, RTA, FFT, AUD, and TAL. If the options for the SSA,
LOG, RTA, FFT, AUD, or TAL have not been purchased,
they can be evaluated in a
demo mode .
Restrictions of demo IDs:
• Cannot print reports
• Cannot store data
• Cannot perform any I/O commands
• Only 20 demos are permitted
• Memory must be purged prior to activating these IDs
The following is an overview of how to select a
measurement setup.
Note that each of the permanent
setups has a letter “p” to the left of
the setup name, indicating that it
cannot be modified or deleted. It can
be saved under another name and
then modified.
Step 1 To display the available instrument setups, press
the
S
Setup key.
At any time, one of the available setups will be the
active setup. The name of this setup will be at the
top of the list below the Edit Setting message.
Pressing the
c
key while the “Edit Settings”
menu item is highlighted initiates the modification
procedure.
