Utility/Shotbox
Utility Overview
A utility is a function that is used to assign a specific action
or a shortcut for a frequently used menu to a button, which
can then be recalled by pressing the button.
The functions you can assign include menu shortcuts,
setting functions (recalling utility commands), and
recalling shotbox registers or macro registers.
Utility Execution
You can execute utility functions using the menu panel,
utility/shotbox control block, or cross-point control block.
For details about shotbox execution, see “Shotbox
Execution” (page 344).
Utility Execution (Menu Panel)
In the menu panel, you can assign actions to the 16 user
preference buttons.
The [PREFS1] to [PREFS8] user preference buttons 1 to 8
are assigned by default.
Action and button assignments are made in the Setup
menu.
For details about action assignment, see “Assigning
Functions to User Preference Buttons” (page 421).

button is lit amber, and the function is enabled. To
