Text Conventions: The following conventions are used in this manual, in order to clarify the

Textual and Graphic

information and instructions provided:

Conventions

Remote control button identifiers are set in upper-case bold type; for example, “Press EXIT to return to the previous menu.”

All keys with functional names are initial-capped, set in bold type and enclosed in angle brackets. These keys are the following: <Enter>, <Spacebar>, <Control>, <Esc> and <Tab>.

<Enter> indicates that you may press either the RETURN or ENTER key on your computer keyboard if it has both keys.

Computer input (commands you type) and output (responses that appear on-screen) is shown in monospace (fixed-width) type; for example: “To change the aspect ratio to Letterbox, type [S4E0002.”

In addition to these conventions, underlining, boldface and/or italics are occasionally used to highlight important information, as in this example:

A carriage return must be used after each command or string.
