Format Conventions in this Manual:
1.
Keys:
The keys on the front panel are usually denoted by the format of "Key Name (Bold) + Text Box". For
example, FREQ denotes the FREQ key.
2.
Menu Keys:
The menu softkeys are usually denoted by the format of "Menu Word (Bold) + Character Shading". For
example, Center Freq denotes the center frequency menu item under the FREQ function key.
3.
Connectors:
The connectors on the front or rear panel are usually denoted by the format of "Connector Name (Bold)
+ Square Brackets (Bold)". For example, [Gen Output 50Ω].
4.
Operation Procedures:
indicates the next step of operation. For example, FREQ
Center Freq indicates pressing FREQ
on the front panel and then pressing the menu softkey Center Freq.
