OPERATING INFORMATION
Control Key Descriptions
The following is a detailed description of each key on the control keypad. The discussion follows the
grouping given in the Keypads section. The operation of each key is provided along with the
dependence that key may have on the presence of a plug-in module. The display associated with each
state of the key's operation is shown.
In the diagrams for the display, the character x denotes a digit, and an asterisk (*) denotes an
exponential unit (e.g. u for micro-, k for kilo-, M for mega-).
For the menu keys, an overall chart, showing which menu selections have control in each Mode, is
given in Table 2-2. An x in the column for a given Mode indicates that the menu selection operates in
that Mode. Note that not all Modes and not all menu selections apply to each module (the appropriate
module manuals provide details on this).
Table 2-3 gives a list of the menu selections available for the 6040 when used as a stand alone
instrument (without a module installed).
