	2	Make sure that you have your desired entries in the fields of the Configuration
		Information Menu (see Notes, below).
	3	Scroll to and select Connection Drawing Menu.
	4	For a diagram of front panel connections, scroll to and select Show Instrument
		Front Panel Connections.
	5	For rear panel connections, scroll to and select Show Instrument Rear Panel
		Connections.
	6	You can exit the connection diagram screen by pressing the Continue (k2) key.
	7	Press the Prev Menu (k5) key to return to the Configuration Information
		Menu.
	8	Press the Main Menu (k5) key to return to the main menu level.
Notes	The connection diagrams change as a function of the entries into the
	Configuration Information Menu. For this reason, make sure you have
	entered your desired values before viewing the instrument connections.

Connection diagrams for each CDMA test are also shown in chapter 2, "Making Measurements".
