MX-4 DV Buttons When referencing the various buttons (keys) and other controls on the MX-4 DV keyboard, they
appear in uppercase, boldface characters. For example, the keyboard contains the PLAY button and
T - BAR .
In some cases you use two buttons together to perform a function. This is normally done using the
shift button in combination with some other button. A plus (+) symbol indicates this. For example,
you might be asked to enter
SHIFT + PIPS to start MultiPIP mode. This means press and hold down
the SHIFT button, press the PIPS button, then release both.
Sources, Channels,

The terms Source, Channel, and Output appear extensively throughout this guide. It’s important to
understand the differences between them.
A Source is a physical device, such as a VCR, that provides a video and/or audio signal.
