The function button command selection at the bottom of the Noise Test Setup menu consists of five options
available to the operator. The first three options (EDIT/SELECT, SELECT PREVIOUS, SELECT NEXT)
enable the modification of the test parameters (residing near the upper part of the screen). The last two
options at the bottom of the screen are CABLE TESTS and MAIN MENU. For some options for which a
numeric value must be entered, only three options may appear: EDIT/SELECT, CABLE TESTS and MAIN
MENU.
To modify a test parameter, it must first be highlighted with the cursor. A test parameter can be highlighted
by moving the cursor to the desired parameter with the Cursor Pad UP/DOWN arrow buttons.
The following are brief descriptions of each of the function button options:
EDIT/SELECT Pressing the function button corresponding to EDIT/SELECT invokes a menu
wherein a desired parameter can be highlighted by using the Cursor Pad
UP/DOWN arrow buttons and/or the function buttons corresponding to PAGE
UP and PAGE DOWN (should they exist). Press the function button
corresponding ENTER to select the highlighted parameter.
SELECT PREVIOUS Pressing the function button corresponding to SELECT PREVIOUS scrolls
backward through each of the parameters that are available for the highlighted
option.
SELECT NEXT Pressing the function button corresponding to SELECT NEXT scrolls forward
through each of the parameters that are available for the highlighted option.
CABLE TESTS Pressing the function button corresponding to CABLE TESTS causes the
CABLE TESTS pop-up window to appear.
MAIN MENU Select the function button corresponding to MAIN MENU to return to the Main
Menu.
