The Control Panels
4-31
would have been very crowded to include separate buttons for each
channel and therefore, when you intend to program channel 1
parameters, click on the CH1 button. Likewise if you intend to
program channel 4 parameters, click on the CH4 button.
X-Instrument Sync
The X-Instrument Sync serves the multi-instrument synchronization
purpose. It is a bit different than the other panels as it has only one
function of providing an environment for setting up the various
instruments for the setting and therefore, a dialog box is invoked
when you hit the X-Instrument Sync button.
There are some preliminary actions you must take before you can
synchronize instruments of which the first is to connect the cables
and set up LAN addresses. Follow the procedure as described
hereinafter:
Tip
Multiple Instrument synchronization requires that all
instruments are connected to a Local Area Network
(LAN) system. If just two instruments are to be
synchronized, connection between the two instruments
can be made with a crossed wire LAN cable however,
activation and operation is possible from the front panel
only.
