Setting up a Channel
Channel set ups are made in Configuration Mode, which must be entered from Inactive
Mode. If the instrument is in Active Mode, turn the Scan and/or Monitor function off
before proceeding.
Follow the steps below to change the channel setup. More detailed instructions for
setting all instrument parameters are provided in Chapter 3.
During the following steps, note that some items on the display are brightly lit, and
others are dimly lit. The bright item is intended to focus your attention on the choice the
instrument is offering you at that moment.
Note
Press D to exit the channel setup menu at any time, leaving the old setup
unchanged.
