Jumping to commonly-used screens

Within a project, it’s likely that you’ll find yourself using some screens more than others. One of the main such screens is the module screen, allowing you to view and change a module’s parameters at a glance.

For this reason, a dedicated MODULE key, with indicator, is provided to the right of the number keys. The module parameters shown are those of the module selected using the SEL keys.

The three USER keys are used to set up three commonly-used shortcuts to screens used frequently within a project.

Setting a USER screen With the screen shown to which you want to

make a shortcut, press and hold the SHIFT and CTRL keys (to the left of the unit). While holding down these keys, press one of the USER keys. Release all the keys. Next time you

press that USER key (without the SHIFT and CTRL keys), the display shows the screen you set previously.
