Softkeys
Softkeys are virtual function keys whose actual function is defined by the soft-
ware, depending on the currently selected measurement mode or key, or both.
Sometimes, more functions are available than softkeys can be displayed
at the same time. In this case, a second menu of functions is available,
indicated by "1/2" and "2/2" beneath the softkeys in the display. To switch
between the two menus of softkey functions, press the "More softkeys" key
beneath the softkeys on the front panel of the R&S
EVSF1000.
Softkeys can perform a function directly, or open a dialog or submenu with further
settings and functions. Some softkeys are directly associated with an input field in
the measurement settings area of the window. If the softkey shows a vertical blue
line at the edge, you can edit the value of the corresponding setting directly in the
measurement settings area of the window. If the blue line is not shown, the set-
ting is read-only. To toggle between the edit mode and read-only mode, select the
softkey again.
