4.1.5 Menu Keys
The i/iX Series is operated through a series of menus. These menus can be reached by using a
number of menu keys located along the bottom of the LCD display and the UP/DOWN cursors keys.
Several menus have more than two entries. Since the LCD display has two display lines, additional
entries may not be visible but can be reached by scrolling up or down using the UP/DOWN cursor
keys. The following menu keys are available:

KEY DESCRIPTION
ON/OFF The ON/OFF key located to the left of the Menu keys may be used to
control the state of the output relay. The active state is indicated by
the Output LED. If the output relays are open (LED is off), the output
is floating.
PHASE The PHASE key is reserved for use on three phase power source
models. On 751i/iX and 1501i/iX models, this key has no function and
is a don’t care.
SET The SET key selects the PROGRAM setting screen. While this screen
is displayed, the rotary knob can be used to change either voltage or
frequency. Additional output settings such as current limit can be
reached by using the down  cursor key.
For test options such as –704 or –160, the SET key can be used to
skip to the next test in a test sequence during test execution.
MEAS The MEAS key selects the measurement screen for the selected
phase. If all three phases are selected, the measurement data for
phase A will be displayed. There are no user changeable fields in the
measurement screen. The rotary knob is active while the
measurement screen is displayed. Additional measurement data can
be displayed by using the up  and down  cursor keys.
MENU The top-level menu is accessed by pressing the MENU key. Refer to
section 4.2 for details on available menus.
BACK The BACK key may be used to back up to the previous menu level or
previously selected screen. It can also be used as a backspace key to
delete the last digit entered.
For tests options such as the –160 and –704 options, the BACK key
can be used to abort a test in progress.
If the unit is in remote mode, (Remote LED is lit), the front panel of
the power source is disabled. The BACK button doubles as a GOTO
LOCAL button (LOCAL) while the unit is in remote state. This allows
the user to regain control of the front panel. This LOCAL button can
be disabled by sending a Local Lockout bus command. This prevents
unauthorized changes of settings in ATE applications.
