Navigating the Menu Screens

Both single-function and multi-function menu screens are used throughout the front panel
SELECT: menu interface. Both screen types display all available options and prompt the user to
carry out a required action.
For the top-tiered menu screens, such as the SELECT: Configure menu branch screen and its
nested SELECT: CONFIGTx menu screen, use the arrow keys to first select a menu item.
Press [ENT] to open the nested submenu screen.
Nested submenu screens, such as the SELECT: CONFIGTx Mod submenu, provide multiple
functional selections on a single screen, and therefore require additional navigation steps:
First, you must first use the arrow keys to navigate to an available option on the active
screen. Press [ENT] to enable selection of that option's available settings. Note that the cursor
jumps from the select option name to its editable/selectable setting.
Then, unless otherwise noted, you must use the  arrow keys to scroll through the available
settings. Once the desired setting is selected, you must then press [ENT] to save that option
setting. Note that the cursor jumps from the setting back to its select option name.
Repeat these steps as needed for each available option. Once all option settings are configured
via the  arrow keys and the [ENT] key, press [CLR] to exit the active menu screen and return
to the previously selected menu.
