Note: The CAPTURE function only works when User
ARB is selected as the output type. For all other
types, this function is not used.
AMPL/LOCAL Button
This button has two functions:
- Opens the generator menu with the amplitude
parameter highlighted(Primary function)
- Sets the instrument back to Local mode when
instrument is in remote mode (RMT) (Secondary
function)
When AMPL button is pressed, the generator menu will
automatically open up with the amplitude parameter
highlighted and the cursor placed on the amplitude value.
The he Output Type setting determines which amplitude
parameter will be highlighted, e.g. if output type is set to FM,
then the carrier amplitude will be highlighted. When the
instrument is in remote mode (indicated by RMT icon on the
upper left corner of the display), pressing the AMPL button
will set the unit back into local mode. This will also unlock all
front panel keys as the instrument will no longer be in remote
mode.
