These scroll keys let you move through the choices in a command list.

Press to bring up the next command in the list. Press to go back to the previous command in the list. Function menus are circular; you can return to the starting position by continuously pressing either key. The following example shows the commands in the Input function menu:

These shifted scroll keys apply only to the Harmonic and List functions. Press these keys to step through integers 0 through 50 when specifying the desired harmonic number, or 0 through 99 when specifying the desired list point. Hold down these keys to rapidly access any harmonic or list point.

These Entry keys let you scroll through choices in a parameter list that apply to a specific command. Parameter lists are circular; you can return to the starting position by continuously pressing either key. If the command has a numeric range, these keys increment or decrement the existing value.
