ESI Operation Manual
The Cursor is a small flashing line that appears in the display window
under the data that is currently being edited. The Cursor/Page buttons
are used to move the cursor around in the display. The buttons are
shaped like arrows which point in the direction of movement. In many
cases a particular function will have more options than will fit on a
single page of the display. In this case the right and left arrow buttons
become the page selects, allowing you to move through the various
pages of the display.
The Cursor/Page buttons perform the following functions:
1. Moving the cursor. To move the flashing cursor line in a particular
direction in order to select a different function, simply press the
corresponding cursor key.
2. Selecting the display page. In many submodules, a single screen of
the LCD cannot display all the available parameters. Arrows (<- ->)
in the display indicate that there are additional screens which may
be viewed by pressing the corresponding cursor button.
3. Selecting presets. When no modules are selected, and the cursor is
placed under the preset number, presets may be incremented or
decremented by pressing the left and right cursor buttons. This
method is useful for live performance - arrange your presets in the
desired order, and step through them as needed.
4. Adding or deleting a space when naming. A quick and easy way to
add or delete a space when naming samples or presets is to use the
left and right cursor keys. The up key adds a space and the down
key deletes a space.
5. Selecting zero crossing points when editing samples. When
editing samples in the Digital Processing module, the left and right
cursor buttons can be used to select points where the waveform
crosses the zero axis.
Selecting the Current Preset
With no modules active, the display shows the Current Preset name
and number on line 1 of the display. The blinking cursor appears under
the preset number' s first digit. There are five ways to change the current
preset:
1. Enter a three-digit number with the keypad. If you enter a num-
ber for which there is no preset, the lower display line shows the
illegal preset number and says "Empty Preset." Try again.
2. Move the data entry control or the increment buttons. The top
display line continues to show the current preset, but the lower line
will scroll through the available presets as you move the data entry
control. When the lower line shows the preset that you want as the
current preset, press ENTER.
3. Increment or decrement the Current Preset (as displayed in the
top line) with the left and right cursor buttons. This method is
useful for live performance—arrange your presets in the desired
order, and step through them as needed.
