4540 OPERATION
MENU TREES
Boonton’s 4540 is a designed for best performance but at the same time for
ergonomic aspects and user convenience. Thus, menus of the systems are not rigid
but take particular configurations and measurement conditions into account, this
includes measurement modes and sensors connected. Also the sensor type, CW or
Peak, determines different menu presentation. Soft keys may change – in a way that
the instrument assumes what the user wants to press next.
Boonton made the menu structure of the 4540 as intuitive as possible, offering
manual operation of the 4540 with as few as possible key strokes – independent of
the mode. Users who worked with the unit became comfortable within minutes and
became excited about the swift way to operate this power meter and perform
measurements.
The example shows the Main menu twice. The first screen shot refers to a
modulated measurement that a user may have selected, the second presentation
refers to a statistical measurement. Soft keys change in a way that the user would
expect. Modulated measurement
provides Trigger and Time sub-
menus, while statistical
measurements present the Stat
Mode menu.
