7.09.02 Function keys
The function keys described below are used basically to switch machine functions on and
off.
Each time a key is pressed, this must be confirmed by at least one beep tone. Irrespective
of the machine mode a double beep signal is given if invalid keys are pressed or maximum
values reached.
If a corresponding value has to be set for the activated function, this is carried out with the
corresponding
+/- key
. By pressing and holding the corresponding
+/- key,
the relevant
numerical value
4
is changed slowly to begin with. If the corresponding
+/- key
is held down
longer, the values change more quickly.
