Numeric Key Descriptions
The following is a detailed description of each key on the numeric keypad.
{0}...{9}
The digits zero through nine.
{.}
The decimal point.
{+/-, SGL/DBL} Changes the sign of a parameter entered using the digit keys (or of an exponent
when pressed after the {10
x
} key). This key is also used to toggle between
positive and negative Trigger Slope, between Single or Double Pulse, between
Full or Half Duplex and between Remote Enable and Remote Disable (when the
appropriate menu selection appears on the display).
{10
x
}
The exponent key. Digits entered after UO*} has been pressed will be
exponents of ten.
{BK SPC}
Deletes the last digit entered and moves the cursor one position to the left. The
backspace key is only active while data entry is taking place with the numeric
keypad.
{ENTER}
Terminates data entry from the numeric keypad. When used for entering Delay
and Width parameters, ENTER leaves the current timing cycle unaffected, but
prevents the keyboard from responding to new input until the timing cycle has
completed. This key is also used to manually trigger the instrument under Single
Cycle operation.
{EXEC}
Terminates data entry from the numeric keypad. When used for entering Delay
and Width parameters, EXEC turns off pulses for the remainder of the current
timing cycle. This key is also used to manually trigger the instrument under
Single Cycle operation.
