Agilent Technologies E8285A manual User Keys

Chapter 1, Description of Keys

USER Keys

USER Keys

User keys instantly access instrument settings without using the knob. You can use user keys to move quickly between fields on the same screen, and to access field settings that are not normally available on the screen you are using.

Local user keys are used to move between settings on the screen that is displayed. When the user key is pressed, the cursor instantly moves to, and selects, the assigned field; eliminating the need to turn and push the knob. Five local user keys are available for each screen: K1, K2, K3, K4, and K5.

Five factory-assigned local user keys are available in each screen; however, using these keys removes any other local user keys you may have already set up.

Global user keys are used to access settings that are not available on the current screen. Three global user keys are available: K1’, K2’, and K3’. (These are shifted functions of the local user keys.)

When defining user keys, the Assign function is used to create key definitions; the Release function removes the definitions. Re-assigning a user key to a different field setting automatically releases it from the setting it was previously associated with.
