Conventions for Procedure Descriptions
When operating the instrument, several alternative methods may be available to
perform the same task. In this case, the procedure using the touchscreen is
described. Any elements that can be activated by touching can also be clicked
using an additionally connected mouse. The alternative procedure using the keys
on the instrument or the on-screen keyboard is only described if it deviates from
the standard operating procedures.
The term "select" may refer to any of the described methods, i.e. using a finger on
the touchscreen, a mouse pointer in the display, or a key on the instrument or on
a keyboard.
