Changing Parameters

Using the Shortcut

Buttons

The shortcut buttons are provided for experienced users. The buttons allow you to
select a setup parameter without using any bezel menu selection. The following
example shows how the Frequency/Period shortcut button works.

You can use the shortcut buttons while viewing any of the display formats. Push a
shortcut button to display the last view type and highlight the selected parameter
setting. Figure 1-18 is a sample screen of Pulse Width Modulation parameter menu
display.

From Figure 1-18, pushing the Frequency/Period shortcut button will change the
bezel menu to look like Figure 1-19.
