Getting Started
Agilent FrameScope 350 User’s Manual 13
Using the FrameScope 350
You operate the FrameScope using its front panel touchscreen
and control buttons. When testing with the unit, use the
following operating tips:
• Select items on the display by pressing them with your finger
or with a stylus or by scrolling the highlight bar with the
scroll button. The touch screen may not detect a quick press;
you should press firmly.
• Many screens have lists of items that you can navigate using
the Scroll button. Pressing this button up or down moves the
selection highlight.
• Selected items are highlighted in dark blue to indicate that
they are selected. Most screens have a default selected item.
• Execute a selected item by pressing it or by pressing the OK
button.
• To return the Main Menu at any time, press the Main Menu
button on the bottom of the display.
• To return to the previous screen, press the Back button on
the bottom of the display.
Running a Test
The basic steps for performing a test with the FrameScope 350
are described below. For more information on network testing,
see
Chapter 2 , “Network Testing with the FrameScope 350”. For
more information on cable testing, see Chapter 3 , “Cable Testing
with the FrameScope 350”.
1 Switch the unit on. Connect power to charge the battery if
necessary. See
“Checking Power and Charging the Battery”
on page 11.
2 Install the appropriate SmartProbe for your test and connect
the FrameScope to the network under test. See
