Front-panel PRESET Key
The Front-panel Reset is accomplished by pressing the PRESET key on
the front panel of the Test Set.
For the INSTRUMENT CONFIGURE, PRINTER CONFIGURE,
TESTS (Execution Conditions), TESTS (Printer Setup) and I/O
CONFIGURE screens, Table 6-12 on page 179 lists the fields which are
restored/initialized when the front-panel
Preset key is pressed. The
restored state or initialized value is listed below the field name. Fields
which are not listed are maintained at their current value, whatever
that may happen to be. All fields in the SOFTWARE MENU screen and
the TESTS (External Devices) screen are maintained at their current
state/value. The current state/value of the maintained fields can be
ascertained programmatically.
The Front-panel Reset condition in the Test Set was specifically
designed to configure the instruments for manual testing of an FM
radio. The Front-panel Reset default display screen is the RX TEST
screen. Other operational characteristics are also affected by the
Front-panel Reset as follows:
• All pending operations are aborted.
• Measurement triggering is set to TRIG:MODE:SETT FULL;RETR
REP.
• Any previously received Operation Complete command (*OPC) is
cleared.
• Any previously received Operation Complete query command
(*OPC?) is cleared.
• The Test Set’s display screen is in the UNLOCKED state.
• The Power-up self-test diagnostics are not performed.
• The HP-IB interface is not reset (any pending Service Request is not
cleared.)
• The Contents of the SAVE/RECALL registers are not affected.
• Calibration data is not affected.
• All Enable registers are unaffected: Service Request, Standard
Event, Communicate, Hardware #1, Hardware #2, Operation,
Calibration, and Questionable Data/Signal.
• All Negative Transition Filter registers are unaffected:
Communicate, Hardware #1, Hardware #2, Operation, Calibration,
and Questionable Data/Signal.
• All Positive Transition Filter registers are unaffected: Communicate,
Hardware #1, Hardware #2, Operation, Calibration, and
Questionable Data/Signal.
