A Quick Help system is built into the oscilloscope. Press and hold any key to display Quick Help.
Complete instructions for using the quick help system are given on
Digital Channels
Because all of the oscilloscopes in the Agilent InfiniiVision 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 (available on the 6000 and 7000 Series oscilloscopes).
Abbreviated instructions for pressing a series of keys and softkeys
Instructions for pressing a series of keys are written in an abbreviated manner. Instructions for
pressing Key1, then pressing Softkey2, then pressing Softkey3 are abbreviated as follows:
[Key1]&Softkey2&Softkey3.
Press
The keys may be a front panel [Key] or a Softkey. Softkeys are the six keys located directly below
the oscilloscope display.

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
complete the instructions.
