Tips: Bank selection

When storing time data to a locate point memory "on the fly" by pressing the [STORE] key, the destina- tion bank (the CUE or MEMORY bank) is initially selected to the one previously used for storing time data. The first time you press the [STORE] key after turning on the power, the CUE bank is selected (shown by "CUE" lit on the display).

If you store time data to a locate point memory in the currently selected bank, go to step 3-1.

If you store time data to a locate point memory in the bank which is not currently selected, go to step 3-2. (Pressing the appropriate locate point key for the first time switches the bank.)
