To display digital channels as a bus
Digital channels may be grouped and displayed as a bus, with
each bus value displayed at the bottom of the display in hex or
binary. You can create up to two busses. To configure and
display each bus, press the D15 Thru D0 key on the front panel
(just to the right of the display). Then press the Bus softkey.
Next, select a bus by rotating the Entry knob, then press the
Bus1/Bus2 softkey to switch it on.
Use the softkey to the right and the Entry knob to select
individual channels to be included in the bus. You can also
press the Select/Deselect D15-D8 and Select/Deselect D7-D0
softkeys to include or exclude groups of eight channels in each
bus.
If the bus display is blank, completely white, or if the display
includes “...”, you need to expand the horizontal scale to allow
space for the data to be shown, or use the cursors to display the
values (see page 123).
The Base softkey lets you choose to display the bus values in hex
or binary.
