Working with Units
The unit of a parameter is displayed next to the value. When the parameter is edited,
the unit is selected either from the list or by means of the front-panel keys. When the
entry is completed, the unit can be changed. In this case the value remains unchanged
but is automatically adapted to the new unit.
While operating the instrument by means of a mouse, assign the unit to the selected
parameter before entering its value.

To assign a unit to a value, use one of the following alternatives:
1. Press a [UNIT] key on the front panel.
2. Select a "Unit" in the selection field next to the parameter value.
Press the [ENTER] key.
The unit displayed in the entry field next to the value is assigned.
Changing a unit
To subsequently change a unit, i.e. after the entry has been terminated and when the
editing mode is not active, use one of the following alternatives:
1. Press a [UNIT] key on the front panel.
2. Select"Unit" in the selection field next to the parameter value.
The value remains unchanged but the display is automatically adapted to the new
unit, i.e. the value is recalculated to suit the new unit.
