The top knob moves a selection box among the steps and parameters on the left side of the screen. The knob moves the selection box horizontally across the screen until the step number or last parameter is selected. Then the next move will be to the adjacent row. This causes a “snaking” action. If the list goes beyond the bottom of the screen, turning the knob further clockwise will cause the list to scroll up. The example screen shows a blank “Image” entry selected.

The bottom knob normally moves a selection box up and down the list of choices on the right side. Long lists will scroll up and down on the screen. The Change button copies the entry on the right side to the left side. If the sequence number is se- lected on the left side, the bottom knob is used to go through the list of all sequence files in memory. The example screen shows “GrayBar” selected.

Leaving a Format and/ or Image entry for a given step empty, will cause the 801G* to use the last format or image shown above the empty position(s). The example sequence shown would use format VGA_m18 for step #2 and the FocusCx image for step #3. It does not matter if the operator is going forward or backward through the steps.

The Insert, Delete and Move buttons are used to modify the sequence list. These buttons only work when a step number is selected. The “Insert” button puts a blank step at the selected position. All steps below the insertion point are moved down. The “Delete” button removes the selected step. All steps below the deleted step move up. Pressing the “Move” button lets you move the selected step to another position in the list. The step is moved by rotating the top knob. Pressing the “Move” button a second time will leave the step in the new position.
