Making a Basic Measurement
In this guide, the keys labeled with [ ], for example,
[Preset/System] refer to front- panel hardkeys. Pressing many
of the hardkeys accesses softkey menus that are displayed
along the right side of the screen. The softkey menu labels
are aligned so that they are located next to the softkeys at
the right side of the display screen. For example, Preset is a
softkey menu selection when first pressing [Preset/System].
