Repeated presses of the <NAV> button pages through the menu’s screens one at a time.

Once a desired page of menu selections is shown on the display, you must highlight and select the item to be changed (or field to be edited). The current selection will be highlighted; i.e. it will be displayed with white text on a black background. Other menu items (which are not highlighted) will be shown with black text on a white

background. You can change which item is highlighted using the <5> & <6> buttons.
