Navigation controls
The versatile user interface can be navigated using the touch screen, rotary knob, front panel keys or a
combination of all three options.
Many settings can be made quickly and easily using the touch screen alone; the rotary knob is most
useful when, for example, a parameter is being frequently increased or decreased during manual
testing. Using the front panel keys is a quick way to directly edit when frequently changing a value.
There are two types of field; both of which are explained in this manual. A ‘button’ -
①
- will apply an
action. A ‘parameter’ -
②
- will provide a list of options for the user to choose.
