the marker card from another plotter plate location (locations 1-5) to view.
In particular, each scroll button will bring about another marker card as fol-
lows:

1. Marker Card configured in first location (location 1) of the Plotter Plate.

2. Marker Card configured in previous location of Plotter Plate.

3. Marker Card configured in next location of Plotter Plate.

4. Marker Card configured in last location (location 5) of the Plotter Plate.

the Marker Card is highlighted. This is the first marker. (Example: marker 1
in project 1 is the start marker in the figure below.)

The sequence of labelling is illustrated by means of the numbers 1-20
