Note
Before turning the

knob, the channel for which you are going to use the knob must be selected using
one of the keys
CH1
to
CH16
.
V/DIV
knob is applicable only to channels which have the voltage module (701855, 701856, 701852 and
701853) installed.
Entry using the jog shuttle
Before using the jog shuttle to enter a value, you must select the desired parameter by pressing
the corresponding soft key. The shuttle ring (the outer ring of the shuttle) allows you to enter
values in larger steps than the jog dial. The size of the step depends on the angle by which the
shuttle ring is turned. For some parameters you can use the arrow keys below the jog shuttle to
shift from one digit to the next.
Note
If you make an incorrect change with the jog shuttle, you can undo the change by pressing the
RESET
key.
Entry using the KEYBOARD key
When setting a parameter that displays a “
” mark on the soft key, pressing the
KEYBOARD
key opens a numerical input screen. You can enter the value using the 10 keys, as well as the
“.,” “-,” “EXP,” “m,” and “
µ
” keys. Pressing the “
ENTER
” key (“
CH16
” key) confirms the
input.
Pressing the
RESET
key clears the input. Moving the cursor with the arrow keys and
reentering a value overwrites the previous value.
Pressing the
ESC
or
KEYBOARD
key closes the numerical input screen and cancels the input.
