CHAPTER VI

Using Menus

The design of the Shortcut Editor places all of the commonly used functions on dedicated

keys. Less-often used tasks are selected through menus; these define global aspects of the
editor's behavior, and perform specialized operations. There are two methods of using menus:

Method 1

Press the M

ENU

key at any time to make a list appear.

Rotate the S

CRUB

W

HEEL

to highlight the desired item.

Press E

NTER

or M

ENU

to select that item. The variable for that menu selection

will blink, or a sub-menu will appear.

Rotate the S

CRUB

W

HEEL

to select the desired item.

Press E

NTER

to confirm the selection, or

EXIT

to restore the original setting.

Press E

XIT

to back out to the main menu list.

Press E

XIT

again to exit entirely from the menu operation, and return to your

previous work screen.

The L

(

) or the

GO TO

keys can be used in place of the

S

W

to make menu selections. The E

I

N

and E

O

keys can be used in place

of E

NTER

and E

XIT

, unless an audio waveform is on the display.

Method 2

All items within the menus are numbered. Press a numeric key to directly select the

menu item. This leads to some shortcuts to finding menu choices. For example:

M

ENU

, [2] = Show the Quick Reference list

M

ENU

, [3] = Rename the Directory or File

M

ENU

,

[1]

or M

ENU

,

M

ENU

= Go to the Setup Menu

The S

TOP

key has an extra function when working with menus. It means "Get me back

to where I was – make all these menus go away." Use S

TOP

if you are in any menu and wish to

immediately abandon what you are doing.

This method is used exclusively by the special “quick menus” for Input Select (S

OFT

K

EY

1)

and Speakers On/Off (S

OFT

K

EY

2).

For example, S
