Section 8 - Settings Screens
To ensure the most accurate and usable information is derived from the OSA, it is necessary to set the testing and
equipment parameters prior to starting a scan.
Test parameters may be set at the time of use or they may be set and stored for later use. These test configurations
are stored in file management.
To set testing parameters and general equipment settings, use the Settings screen. To access the Settings screen,
open the Icon menu, highlight the Settings icons and touch it or press Select.

Note
The Directional buttons and the Select button are not operational in the Settings screen.
To select a parameter to be modified, touch it on the display and the Parameter Settings screen will be displayed.
Parameter Settings Screens
There are two types of parameter screens. The first, as typified by the Power Setting screen on the next page, offers
a selection of two items. Select the desired value and touch Save. The second type is one where numeric values
are selected. These may have one or two values to be entered. If two values are needed (shown on the zoom range
display below), there will be two tabs, such as Begin and End tabs with this parameter. Use the up arrow above
the digit or the down arrow below the digit to set the value. If necessary, select the second tab and set the second
value. Touch Save to set the values and return to the settings display.
