The buttons showing Default, Sports and News are groups of channels. This is
set up in the station configuration where channels can be optionally assigned
groups. Selecting the appropriate group button will show only those channels
assigned to the group.
This warning icon which is shown for some channels indicates that there is
a connection error to one of the devices on the channel. As soon as this
connection error is resolved this icon will be automatically removed. A
connection error will be caused by such issues as loss of network communications
to the device, the unit being turned off or restarting.
If there are more than 8 channels in a group the channels can be scrolled up or
down using the scroll up/down buttons at the right hand edge of the panel.
