Operating procedures in this manual
On this unit, operations such as “editing a value”, “moving the
cursor”, “setting/cancelling a value”, or “moving to a screen”
can be performed on multiple ways, as explained earlier. (For
example, “button operations”, “touch panel operations”, “dial
operations”, etc.)
To prevent the explanations from becoming cluttered,
subsequent explanations in this document use a simplied
form such as “move the cursor to __ and edit the value” or
“choose __”, rather than describing all of the possible methods
for doing so. For actual operation, you can use your preferred
method of the various multiple methods described above.
Operations in the Display
This unit’s display is a touch panel; you can perform various
operations by directly touching the display. There are many screens,
but here we explain the typical screen operations.
Text enclosed in square brackets [ ] indicates a button or knob on
the panel. Text enclosed in angle brackets < > indicates a button,
knob in the display.
NOTE
A light touch with your nger is sucient to operate the touch
panel. The touch panel might be damaged if you press it strongly,
or if you press it with a hard object. Do not use excessive force, and
use only your nger to operate it.
