SYSTEM MENU The
System menus control the operating modes, display visibility, sound, rear
panel functions, and battery state of the ML2430A Series Power Meter. Note that
the soft keys will appear differently depending upon the operation mode selected
with the Setup soft key below.
NOTE
When editing an entry in a menu, pressing the
CLR key
clears the digits. If in a menu screen, pressing the CLR key
returns to the previous menu level.
Setup This menu selects the operation mode, allows system setups to be saved or re-
called, and provides two options to reset the system parameters to the default
setup.
MODE
[OPMD] Select between Readout, Power vs. Time, Source Sweep and Pro-
file operation modes. If only Readout is available, check the
Sys-
tem|Rear Panel|GPIB|Mode setting. This setting must be ML24XX
for Profile, Power vs. Time and Source Sweep modes to be
available.

SYSLNM] Recall a saved instrument setup from one of 10 memory locations.
LINK
[LINK] There are two trigger conditions saved; one for Profile mode and
one for Readout mode. Normally, Profile mode trigger conditions
can be changed without affecting the trigger conditions used in
Readout mode. With LINK set to ON, the Profile mode trigger con-
ditions are used for both Profile and Readout modes.
In Profile mode, the user can view what is being measured with the
selected trigger conditions, but only over a limited dynamic range,
as it only uses the two DC ranges of the signal channel. Profile
mode measurement rate is also limited by sweep speed.
