ENTERING DATA

Before proceeding to the various modes of signal generator operation,
you need to know how to enter data from the front panel. Entering
data refers to changing a parameter’s value by editing its current
value or entering a new value to replace the current value. The follow-
ing instructions describe how to (1) open a parameter, (2) edit its cur-
rent value, and (3) enter a new value.

A typical 681XXC menu display (below) is used throughout the data
entry instructions. At this menu display, you can edit both the CW fre-
quency and the output power level parameters.

If you wish to follow along on your 681XXC, you can obtain this same
menu display by resetting your instrument (press

SYSTEM

, then

press

Reset

).

Opening the
Parameter

In order for the value of a parameter to be changed,
the parameter must first be opened.

To open the frequency parameter from the above
menu, press

Edit F1

. The menu display now

changes to show that the menu soft-key

Edit F1

has

been pressed and that the frequency parameter has
been opened. An open parameter is indicated by
placing it in a window with a movable cursor under
its digits.

Only one parameter can be open at a time. If you
press

Edit L1

then the frequency parameter will

close and the power level parameter will open.
