Menu Title
The menu title announces the general classification for a group of currently
accessible functions.
Menu Element
The menu element is a menu or submenu accessible by pressing the Select button.
When you select on a menu element, the menu element becomes the menu title
and the next lower level in the hierarchy becomes the menu element. For example,
if the menu element is T1 Net Params, pressing Select will move T1 Net Params
up to the menu title level and Framing moves up to the menu element level with
ESF being displayed as the option (Figure 3-6).
