Convention
Description
"Graphical user interface elements"
All names of graphical user interface elements on
the screen, such as dialogs, menus, options, but-
tons, and softkeys are enclosed by parentheses.
KEYS
Key names are written in capital letters.
File names, commands, program code
File names, commands, coding samples and screen
output are distinguished by their font.
Input
Input to be entered by the user is displayed in italics.
Links are displayed in blue font.
"References"
References to other parts of the documentation are
enclosed by parentheses.
Softkey descriptions
The description of a softkey (user manual and help) always starts with the softkey
name, and is followed by explaining text and one or more remote control commands.
Each remote command is placed in a single line.
Remote command descriptions
The description of remote control commands (user manual and help) always starts with
the command itself. It is followed by explaining text including an example, the charac-
teristics and the mode (standard or only with certain options). The remote commands
follow the SCPI syntax rules. All parts of the command that have to be entered are in
capital letters, the rest is added in small letters to complete the words and transport
their meaning.
Conventions for procedure descriptions
In manual operation, several alternative methods can be available to perform the same
task. If possible, the procedure using the front panel is described. Any elements that
can be activated by pressing a key can also be clicked using an also connected
mouse.
The alternative procedure using an external keyboard is only described if it deviates
from the standard operating procedures as described in the user manual, chapter
"Operating Concepts", or the help.
