Front Panel Operation – menu functions
The Front Panel Controller uses a 320 by 240 pixel LCD display with a set of six
buttons above and a six below the display. Across the top of the screen is a title
bar with menu names, each name aligns with one of the upper panel buttons.
The top corner buttons are used to scroll the menu titles. Only four of eight
possible menu names are displayed in the title bar at one time. Press either
(
) button or the knob ( ) to display different menu titles.
Each of the four middle buttons are assigned to the menu title that aligns with it.
As the title menus scroll left or right, these “soft” buttons are dynamically
reassigned to the name below it. The example pictured in Figure 3-1 shows:
• the second button is the Main menu (shown highlighted because it is selected)
• the third button is a Status menu.
• the fourth button is the Audio menu. (Not shown if system has no audio)
• the fifth button is for the I/O menu.
________ Near the top corners of the screen is a round symbol. Wherever this is symbol is
displayed indicates that the “speed” knob on the front panel may be used.

Scrolling the title bar ( ) reveals up to eight top level menu titles: Main,
Status, Audio (if available), I/O, A/V Mute, Presets, Delay (RGB Wideband only)
and Misc. When a different menu is selected, the displayed titles may shift but
the selected title will remain highlighted. The bottom buttons are used in the
other menus. Each of these screen menus is described later in this chapter.
