play.

Alternatively, tap "Signal Bar" on the "Display" menu.

To configure auto-hide
The signal bar can be hidden if the displayed information has not changed for a
defined time, and is displayed again automatically when a setting in the signal bar
changes. The signal bar does not hide entirely, it simply fades and becomes less
visible in the display.
1. Press the DISPLAY key on the front panel.
2. In the "Display" dialog box, select the "Diagram Layout" tab.
3. Select "Auto-hide".
4. Define the hiding properties:
● "Hide bar after": the time after which the bar is hidden if no changes occur
● "Hiding transparency": Transparency of the hidden signal bar on a scale
from 20% (low transparency) to 70% (high transparency)
● Hide head also: the horizontal and trigger labels are also faded
