Changing the Locator Bank

1.Press [BANK].

The LOCATE buttons now act as buttons to change locator banks. A blinking locator button will now indicate which bank is active. The currently active bank will be blinking.

2.Press the LOCATOR button ([1]-[8]) corresponding to the bank number you wish to select.

For example, if you wish to use Locator Bank 4, press [4].

3.Once you’ve selected a locator bank, the [Bank] indicator goes out. To return to the previously selected bank, press [Bank] once more, followed by the locator button corresponding to the bank you want.

For example, if Bank 4 is current, and you wish to get back to Bank 1, press [Bank], and then press [1].

Editing Stored Locators

If you store a locator and later decide to change its value, a simple method is to clear it, move to the new position, and re-store the locator at the new position. Here is another way to change the locator values.

1.Hold [SHIFT] and press [F6 (UTILITY)].

The Utility menu icon appears in the display. If it is not displayed, press [F6 (EXIT)].

2.Press [F2 (Loc)].

If “Loc” does not appear above [F2], press [PAGE] until “Loc” is displayed, and then press [F2 (Loc)].

3.Each of the locators is displayed. Use [ ], [ ],

[ ], and [ ] to move the cursor to the locator you want to change. If no value is stored for a locator, “-h-m-

s-f- —-” appears in the display.
