HSETUP — (NTSC operation only) Configures the instrument to accept signals with or without setup.

HPAL — (PAL operation only) When +V is chosen, the phase reference of the -V lines is inverted, then shown as an overlay on the +V lines to provide a comparison display. +V shows +V and -V on alternate lines.
