adjusting the brightness level, the brightness
adjustment bar disappears and the unit exits the

The display on the front panel of the unit normally
shows the VU and peak meters. You can select stereo
or mono metering. The display also can show the status
of inputs, outputs, etc., which you can edit. You can also
adjust the display brightness to match the circumstance.
For display-related operation, the following three keys
are used.
You can set the display brightness to match the circum-
stance (by default, it is set to level 3).
The display brightness setting remains even after you
turn off the unit. If you initialize the flash memory using
the system status display, it is reset to the default setting
(see page 20).
