The MAIN menu screen shows five items. The name of the menu is shown below these. Four more items are hidden but become visible when you scroll down using the rotary control.

(Some of these items may not appear if the user level is not set to 3.)

A cursor shows your position in the menu. The Rotary control moves the cursor up and down.

Finding your way

Use the Rotary control to move the cursor through the menu items. If a double arrow (>>) is visible, then pressing the Select button brings you one level lower in the menu system. Only five items are visible in each menu. Scroll up or down to see any additional items.

When you first enter a menu (other than the MAIN menu) the cursor is positioned next to the first item.

The TOP and PREVIOUS entries are not immediately visible but are located above the first item. Use the Rotary control to scroll up to them.

-Select TOP to bring you back to the MAIN menu.

-Select PREVIOUS to go back to the menu that you were in before the current one.

Leaving the Systems Menu

If you are deep within the menu structure, follow these steps to leave:

a.If necessary move the cursor to the leftmost column with the Select button.

b.Scroll upwards with the Rotary control until the cursor points to TOP (this is the MAIN menu).

c.Press the Select button. The cursor now points to the Menu off item of the MAIN menu.

d.Press the Select button to leave the System menu.

This is the recommended way of leaving the System menu.

If you do not use the menu it disappears after a few seconds. (This delay can be programmed in the VF menu.) However, when you press the Select button again you enter the System menu at the last position of the cursor and not at the top of MAIN menu.

To prevent confusion the next time you enter the System menu, it is advisable to leave the System menu by returning to the MAIN menu (TOP) and selecting Menu off.
