Channel Icons / Custom Text Labels (2-5-4 + MENU Mode)

Changing Channel Icons and/or Adding or Editing Custom Text Labels in the Channel-Time Display

If there is no pre-assigned icon for a channel, you can add a custom text label of up to seven (7) characters to help identify the channel or network. Also, if desired, a custom text label can be added to the Channel-Time display in addition to a pre-assigned icon. You may also add text labels for the Aux input sources to clearly identify the devices that are connected to the Aux inputs.
