Shift button

On each M/E bank and the PGM/PST bank, each cross-point button and reentry button has two button numbers, and you use the shift button to switch between these numbers.

In the case of a 32-button layout, the button numbers are as follows.

Note

On the MVS-8000A/8000G, you can use the rightmost button (number 32) as a [SIDE FLAG] button. In this case, the shift button moves one to the left, to number 31, and the button numbers are offset by one.

For details of the [SIDE FLAG] button, see “Cross-Point Settings (Xpt Assign Menu)” in Chapter 16 (Volume 2).

Switching button numbers

The rightmost (32nd) button functions as a shift button. (The shift button function can be disabled in a Setup menu.)

When selecting the signals of button numbers 1 to 31, press the cross-point button for the desired signal.

To select button numbers 32 to 62, hold down the shift button, and press the cross-point button for the desired signal.
