Display Mode (Track/Fast)

Fast Mode

When operating remotely, there is often no need for the display to be updated as measurements are made. Using the fast display mode will increase the speed of the test set when it is operated remotely.

Fast mode is designed for remote use only. The test set returns to track mode if you change to manual operation.

• No screen or menu items are visible (except error messages).
• Error messages will be displayed in their normal location.
• "This instrument is being operated remotely" will be displayed at the bottom of the screen.

Example

 
OUTPUT 714;"DISPLAY:MODE FAST" !Selects fast mode

Track Mode

The track display mode is used to allow users to see what the test set is doing while it is being controlled remotely. Track mode is the default mode of the test set.

• Any changes made remotely will be updated on the screen if that screen is displayed.
• The error message window will be displayed as required when an error occurs.

Example

 
OUTPUT 714;"DISPLAY:MODE TRACK"!Selects track mode
