To Change Instrument Settings at Power-on

The default settings are restored when you power on the instrument. You can change the power-on settings to the last pow-

ered-off settings. Use the Utility menu to change the power-on settings.

Quick Tips

■ You can restore the instrument to its default settings at any time by pushing the front-panel Default button.

■ To restore the factory default settings, push the front-panel Utility > System bezel > Secure bezel buttons. Executing

the secure function will erase all the instrument setups and waveforms stored in the internal memory.

1. Push the front-panel Utility button.

2. Push the System bezel button.

3. Push the Power On bezel button to

select the power on settings.

■ Default

Select Default to restore the default

settings when the instrument is

powered on.

■ Last

Select Last to restore the same set-

tings as when the instrument was

last powered off.

NOTE. When you set the power-on settings to Last, it is important to keep in mind that sometimes the instrument might not

output signals the next time you power on, depending on the instrument settings. For example, if Burst is selected as the

Run Mode and external trigger source is selected, the instrument will not output signals without receiving a trigger signal.
