How to Roll Data

The roll feature is available in all menus that contain off-screen data. This allows you to roll data for viewing. Data can be off-screen both above and below or left and right of what you see on screen.

One example of a menu having off-screen data above and below the screen is the State Listing. The state listing is normally a list 1024 lines long, however, the display is only capable of showing you 16 lines at a time. To roll data in the state Listing (when the box in the left center of the listing area is light blue) simply turn the knob. If this box is not light blue, touch this box and then turn the knob. If you touch this box when it is light blue, a keypad will appear with which you can enter a state location. This allows you to effectively roll the displayed listing in large increments.
