Power. Use this power connector to apply power to the instrument using the
supplied power cord.
Figure 2-3 shows the location of the LCD display elements. These elements are
described starting below.
Menu Bar. The Menu bar displays the names of the four pull-down menus: FILE,
OUTPUT, CONFIG, and UTILITY. Press the Menu button to enable or disable
the pull-down menus. When the pull-down menus are enabled, the currently
selected menu name is highlighted. Use the Arrow buttons to select the desired
menu.
Hierarchy Display. Each icon in the hierarchy display represents an element of the
stream. The hierarchy text contains a description of the associated icon.
Refer to Hierarchy Display on page 3-25 for detailed information about the
hierarchy icons and their associated Bezel menu selections.
Icon Cursor. The Icon cursor appears as a red box around an icon in the hierarchy
to indicate the currently selected icon. In most instances, generator functions
selected through the menus are applied to the selected hierarchy icon (represent-
ing a particular transport stream element).
Use the rotary knob or the arrow buttons to move the Icon cursor between icons.
When the Icon cursor is at the top or bottom of the hierarchy display, the
hierarchy scrolls to show additional elements of the stream when applicable.
Elapsed Time or TDT/TOT/STT Time Display. This box displays the elapsed time of
the current stream data output. When a TDT (Time and Data Table), TOT (Time
Offset Table), or STT (System Time Table) is contained in the transport stream,
the elapsed time since the initial time described in the table is displayed in this
box.
Bezel Menu. The Bezel menu contains commands and functions that apply to the
hierarchy icon selected by the Icon cursor. The commands and functions
available in the Bezel menu depend on the type of transport stream element that
is selected.
Scroll Bar. The scroll bar appears when there is a hierarchy display to show your
relative position in the hierarchy of the transport stream.
