Kit Description
This document describes replacing the waveform monitor front panel with the
new, upgraded front panel. One very obvious change is the number of buttons on
the front panel; there are many more buttons on the new front panel. This is
necessary because the new front panel does not employ a touch-screen interface;
all control is through the front panel buttons. Among other things, this change
provides a noticeable improvement in instrument front panel response.
