Built-in Quick Help
A Quick Help system is built into the oscilloscope. Instructions for using the
quick help system are given on page 56.
Digital Channels
Because all of the oscilloscopes in the Agilent 6000 Series have analog channels,
the analog channel topics in this book apply to all instruments. Whenever a topic
discusses the digital channels, that information applies only to Mixed-Signal
Oscilloscope (MSO) models or DSO models that have been upgraded to an MSO.
Using this book with the 6000L Series oscilloscopes
The 6000L Series oscilloscopes do not have a built-in display or front panel
control keys. If you are using a 6000L Series oscilloscope, and this book refers to
using front panel controls, you can use the built-in Web control feature described
on page 42 to complete the instructions.
Abbreviated instructions for pressing a series of keys
Instructions for pressing a series of keys are written in an abbreviated manner.
Instructions for pressing Key1, then pressing Key2, then pressing Key3 are
abbreviated as follows:
Press Key1 & Key2 & Key3.
The keys may be front panel keys, or softkeys, which are located directly below
the oscilloscope display.
