Before you click an item, if you click an area outside the front panel key list area, the list will

Click the soft key that you want to select. The screen that would appear if you had pressed the soft
key will appear.
External Keyboard Operation
The functions of the instrument front panel keys are mapped to the keys on the keyboard, so you can
use the keyboard to perform the same operations that you can perform using the instrument panel
keys.
For the panel key to keyboard key assignments, see the panel key assignment table below.
You can use the keyboard to enter labels, file names, and values.
