Abstract
An apparatus and method for providing an end-user operator with the ability to assign temporary control of a set of one or more operator-specified instrument control operations to one, single-action switch on a signal measurement system front panel. The assigned instrument control operations are preferably represented by text strings in a macro text file that is developed and modified with the use of a text editor integrated into or operatively coupled with the signal measurement system.
