To assist you, a small window box may appear. It can indi-

cate a list, confirm operation, or help input procedure

depending on the situation.

Windows can be opened with their respective buttons and

closed by pressing [EXIT] or the button you used to open it.

Some windows will close automatically after a pertinent

operation is executed.

Moving the cursor

Generally a single display page indicates two or more items

(parameters). Move the cursor (black box with value high-

lighted) to the parameter whose value you want to set or

modify. Move the cursor with the [u], [d], [l] and [r] (cur-

sor buttons).

[u]: moves the cursor up.

Pressing this button when the cursor is at the upper left

parameter (home position) shifts it to the lower right para-

meter.

[d]: moves the cursor down.

Pressing this button when the cursor is at the lower right

parameter shifts it to the upper left parameter (home posi-

tion).

[l]: moves the cursor to the left.

Holding down [SHIFT] while you press this button shifts the

cursor back to home.

[r]: moves the cursor to the right.

✳ If the value of the parameter has not been finalized, the

value on which cursor is positioned is only boxed

without highlighting. Press [ENTER] to finalize the

value and return to the normal display.

Modifying a value

To modify a value, use the VALUE dial, [INC]/[DEC] or

[0]–[9] (numeric keys).

✳ Each parameter has a specific range, so you cannot set

any value smaller than the minimum value or greater

than the maximum value.

VALUE dial

Turning the VALUE dial clockwise increases the value,

counterclockwise decreases the value. Holding down

[SHIFT] as you move the VALUE dial increases value incre-

ments so you can make large value changes faster.

[INC] and [DEC]

Pressing [INC] increases the value, and [DEC] decreases it.

Keep [INC] or [DEC] pressed for continuous adjustment. For

faster value increases, keep [INC] pressed down and press

[DEC]. For decreasing value faster, keep [DEC] pressed

down and press [INC].

If you press [INC] or [DEC] while holding down [SHIFT],

the value increments will get bigger.

[0]–[9] (Numeric Keys)

[0]–[9] are called ‘numeric keys’ and are for directly specify-

ing numerical values. When you enter a number using the

numeric keys, the cursor will change from a black box to a

white box, and the highlight of the value will be removed.

Now finalize the value by pressing [ENTER].

To go from a positive to negative value (+/-), or vice versa,

hold down [SHIFT] and press [0].

✳ Some parameters do not require you to [ENTER] them.
