Hardkey panel
The (virtual) "Hard Key" panel provides on-screen access to the function keys (plus the
[UNDO] and [REDO] key) of the R&S
ZND. Most of the function keys open a related
softtool. For a short description, refer to section
Chapter 4.1.2, "Function keys"
The "Hard Key" panel is particularly useful if the analyzer is controlled from an external
monitor or Remote Desktop.
For the R&S
ZND, it is hidden by default.
You can display the "Hard Key" panel using one of the following methods:
●
Select SYSTEM – [DISPLAY] > "View Bar" > "Hard Key Panel".
●
Select "Display"> "View Bar" > "Hard Key Panel On" from the menu bar.
●
Select "Hard Key" from the context menu of the softtool panel.
