Changing control settings. As you configure the instrument, you may need to set a numerical parameter such as a reference
level or delay time.
There are several different ways to set these parameters in a control window (On DPO70000SX instruments, front panel control
knobs are available on the optional DPO7AFP accessory):
■ Touch or click the parameter to select it. Once selected, one of the multipurpose knobs is assigned to the parameter.
■ To adjust a setting, turn a front panel upper knob (a) or lower knob (b) as indicated by the knob graphic indicator next to the
control window parameter.
■ Push the front panel Fine button to use the knob to make small changes, for example to add another decimal place for
greater accuracy.
This online help usually refers to using the multipurpose knobs to change control settings, although the following methods are
generally available:
■ Some parameters with discrete values have increment/decrement buttons. Touch or click them to change to the next
available value.
■ Some parameters supply a pop-up keypad or keyboard that you can use to enter a new value. Some features provide other
pop-up keypads.
■ If you have an external keyboard attached, you can also use it to type in a new value.
■ You can also adjust parameter values using the mouse wheel. Press the mouse wheel to access fine mode. Press it again
to return to normal mode.
