Agilent Technologies 34401A - Manual (Page 18)

Quick Start
One of the first things you will want to do with your multimeter is to
become acquainted with its front panel. We have written the exercises
in this chapter to prepare the multimeter for use and help you get
familiar with some of its front-panel operations.
The front panel has two rows of keys to select various functions and
operations. Most keys have a shifted function printed in blue above
the key. To perform a shifted function, press
Shift (the Shift
annunciator will turn on). Then, press the key that has the desired
label above it. For example, to select the dc current function,
press
Shift DC V .
If you accidentally press Shift , just press it again to turn off the
Shift annunciator.
The rear cover of this book is a fold-out Quick Reference Guide. On this
cover you will find a quick summary of various multimeter features.
