Editing the Drawbar settings of a Program: “Live” drawbars in Drawbar Preset mode

1.Press the [EDIT] key, then press key #2. The Display reads “UPPER” and shows a graph of the programmed drawbar levels. The display is now in an interactive state: move the Upper drawbars, and the Display reflects the change Ä press the right cursor key [>] and the Display now reads “LOWER”: Now you can freely edit the Lower drawbars in the same manner.

2.To edit a Preset it is likely that you will want to first get the drawbars set exactly like the Preset. Just pay attention to the display, and move each of the nine drawbars until they catch up with the original settings in the display. Then you can make changes with the physical drawbars, accurately represeting what was stored.

Tip: Edit Mode remembers the Edit page you ‘parked’ on the last time you used it. When you select another Program and press the EDIT key, the display returns you to Group 2, the Drawbar Edit page.
