The LARGE knob is the larger, outer knob of the two concentric rotary knobs used to look at or change information on the display. The LARGE knob graphic shows both of the concentric knobs. Turn the LARGE, outer knob when this graphic is shown next to an example.

ENTER Text in all caps and bold indicates the key to press.

A graphic key on the side of the page refers to the key you should press for the given example. There are two types of keys: hard keys and smart keys.

NAV A “hard” key is a permanent key on the right side of the front panel. The NAV key example shown here is a “hard” key.

MSG The “smart” keys are five small keys below the display. The key label is shown above the key on the display and may change depending on the function you are using. Press the key below the label to access the function.
