Battery-remaining level indication bar

For a battery with a digital indicator (percentage indication), if the remaining level of the battery is higher than 70%, all seven segments up to the “F” position are lit.

When the remaining level falls below 70%, the segments go out one-by-one for each drop of 10%. All seven segments can be set to light up when the battery-remaining balance is 100%. To do so select “100%” for the menu option BATT REMAIN FULL in the <BATTERY/P2CARD> screen of the MAIN OPERATION page.

Audio channel level meter

When the MONITOR SELECT CH1/2 / CH3/4 switch is set to [CH1/2], the meter indicates 1 and 2 as the audio channel numbers, together with their audio levels. When the switch is set to [CH3/4], the meter indicates 3 and 4 as the audio channel numbers, together with their audio levels.
