Operating the VS-66FW

6.4.1Storing an Input/Output Configuration

To store1 the current status in memory, do the following:

1.Press the STO button. The STO button blinks.

2.Press one of the 6 LEAF buttons (this will be the setup # in which the current status is stored). If in the CONFIRM mode, press the blinking TAKE button to confirm the action.

That setup # flashes brightly in the 7-segment Display and the memory stores the data at that reference.

6.4.2Recalling an Input/Output Configuration

To recall a configuration, do the following:

1.Press the RCL button. The RCL button blinks.

2.Press the appropriate LEAF button (the button # corresponding to the setup #). If in the CONFIRM mode, that setup configuration will blink in the 7-segment Display, together with the RCL button and the TAKE button, and will only be implemented after pressing the TAKE button.

The memory recalls the stored data from that reference.

Tip: If you cannot remember which of the 6 configurations is the one that you want, set the VS-66FWto the CONFIRM mode and manually scan all the configurations until you locate it.
