Menu and Memory Keys
B.1 Introduction
This appendix is a quick reference to the menus that can be accessed through the MENU and MEMory
keys. The number in parenthesis after the key is the number of times the key must be pressed to reach the
designated menu. MENU (1) means to press the key one time; MENU (2) means to press the key two
times, etc.
The key display information in this appendix is duplicated on the laminated Quick Reference card
shipped with the manual. The opposite side of the card contains a Summary of Commands described in
Appendix A.
Two levels of menu displays are available. The first level includes menus for normal 8500A functions.
The second level are the menus used during 1018B emulation. MENU (8) in the normal mode enables or
toggles the 1018B Emulation mode.
