User Interface
This section will familiarize you with the typographical conventions, display
functions, and general terms used in this manual.
• In the text portion of this manual the 968 keys are shown with brackets on
both sides and in boldface. Ex.,
[FUNCTION]
,
[ILLUM]
, and
[DIF]
.
• When a key is to be momentarily pressed, the statement "press" will be used.
Ex., Press
[FUNCTION].
• When a key is to be held depressed until another action occurs, the statement
"hold down" will be used. Ex., Hold down
[ILLUM]
until
"SELECT
ILLUMINANT"
is displayed.
• Information that will appear in the display
window will be shown with quotation
marks on each side and in boldface. Ex.,
"SELECT ILLUMINANT"
• The symbols t and s represent the
blue and red arrows on the 968. In
calibration and reference value entry the
arrows indicate which direction a value
can be changed. Holding
[DIF]
depressed
and pressing [t ] decreases the value and
[s ] increases the value.
• The term "cursor" represents a black
rectangle that will blink next to or over a
value or function in the display. In most
cases it means that value is active and can
be altered via the [t] and [s] keys.
• A "hand" indicates important notes and
possible operations that need to be
performed before the normal operation.
• When a procedure is continued on the next
page an arrow will appear in the bottom
right hand corner of the page.
• Illuminant/observer combinations are expressed by special notations (Ex.,
D
65
2
indicates illuminant D, 6500°k, and 2° observer).
