The Main Menu is the root for all menu navigation. When an item is selected from the Main
Menu, a secondary menu displays, which includes multiple functions for selection. Some
secondary menus lead to additional menus. Select a menu item to edit its settings or to
proceed to a deeper menu. Items that may be edited are indicated with descriptive text
followed by a colon (:) and a value.
The keypad is used to edit specific objects on the operation menu, such as DMX address,
Preset and Sequence numbers, fade and delay times, etc. Once an edit has been made,
press [
] to accept the selection.
Use [
] to navigate to the next object for action or edit. To return to the previous
operation, press [
]. Continue pressing [
] to return to the menu list and then the Main
Menu.
[
] may also be used with any Yes or No dialog box. Pressing [
] is the same as
selecting No.
