Navigating the Menu System
The menu system of the XG follows a select and set model with the
exception of the VOLTS and AMPS modes. See “Setting VOLTS and
AMPS Modes”.
The general procedure for setting up the features in the select and set
model is:
1. To select a mode, rotate the 9-position Mode control to the desired
mode or press the rotary Adjust/Enter control once to activate the
current selection on the mode control knob. See Figure 3-3.
2. To select the feature or setting, rotate the rotary Adjust/Enter control
to scroll through the different available settings of that mode.
The settings appear on the output current display.
3. Press the rotary Adjust/Enter control to select the feature or setting.
4. Set each value using the rotary Adjust/Enter control. When the value
has been selected, press the rotary Adjust/Enter control to commit the
updated value. Additional values may become available, depending
on the setting that is being configured.

Setting VOLTS and AMPS Modes

The only exceptions to the select and set model are the VOLTS and
AMPS modes which do not allow the selection of tracking and select and
set mode by turning the rotary Adjust/Enter control. In VOLTS and
AMPS modes, the default entry mode setting is automatically selected as
either voltage or current tracking, respectively.
Voltage and current values can be set in tracking mode or select and set
mode using the rotary Adjust/Enter control:
Tracking mode—the new values take effect as the rotary Adjust/Enter
control is rotated.
Select and set mode—the new values do not take effect until the
rotary Adjust/Enter control is pressed. See “Normal Display Mode
and Inactivity Timeout” on page 3–7.
