The PNA display is controlled by a third-party display driver. This driver is capable of producing many display effects which are beyond the basic needs of the PNA measurement environment. Keysight does not specify or warrant these display settings.
WARNING: The PNA display must remain in the 16 bit color setting in order to comply with international emissions regulations.
When using external programs to control the PNA, it is possible that the display settings may become corrupt. When this occurs, the following will restore the PNA display settings:
Click File then Minimize Application
Right-click on the desktop, then click Properties
On the Themes tab, select Keysight PNA
Click OK
The PNA is equipped with a 10.4-inch Hi resolution, color, touch-sensitive LCD screen for displaying traces, softkeys, and other measurement related information. The touch screen LCD allows you to make measurement settings by touching the LCD screen directly with a finger.
