General Operation
This chapter describes the general operation of the FONIX 8000 Test System,
including basic operation of the buttons, screen navigation, default settings,
source types, printing and other information.
2.1 Operation of buttons
The general operation of the various buttons on the FONIX 8000 Test System
are described in this section. This includes a description of the function buttons,
the arrow buttons, and the Menu, Help, Reset, Exit, Level, Feed, Print, Stop
and Start buttons.
2.1.1 Using the function keys
The top row of buttons on the FONIX 8000 Test System front panel consists of
“function keys” labeled [F1] through [F8]. The function of these keys changes
from screen to screen, according to the need of the screen. The screen itself
always shows the function of each of these buttons in a row of boxes along the
bottom of the display. This row is meant to represent the physical buttons on
the front panel. See Figure 2.1.
