decrease the value to 7.
･If the current value(value on configuration label)is 1,entering the command ^MD15 would increase
the value to 16.
･If the current value(value on configuration label)is 25,entering the command ^MD10 would only
increase the value to 30 since that is the maximum value allowed.
Each ^MD command is treated separately in relation to the current value as printed on the
