These keys let you scroll through choices in a parameter list that apply to a specific command. Parameter lists are circular; you can return to the starting position by continuously pressing either key. If the command has a numeric range, these keys increment or decrement the existing value.

point. For example, to enter 33.6 press: 3 3 . 6 Enter.

The backspace key deletes the last digit entered from the keypad. This key lets you correct one or more wrong digits before they are entered.

This key executes the entered value or parameter of the presently accessed command. Until you press this key, the parameters you enter with the other Entry keys are displayed but not entered into the ac source. Before pressing

Enter you can change or abort anything previously entered into the display. After Enter is pressed, the ac source returns to Meter mode in most cases. In Harmonic or List mode, the ac sourse displays the next point in the list.

This key specifies an exponential power of 10. For example, the the value for 100μs can be entered as either . 0 0 0 1 , or as 1 E − 4

This key − is the minus sign.

This key aborts a keypad entry by clearing the value. This key is convenient for correcting a wrong value or aborting a value entry. The display then returns to

the previously set function. When editing a list, pressing truncates or clears the list at the presently displayed list point.

This key accesses the calibration menu (Refer to Appendix B to calibrate your ac source).
