8-5 Memory bank linking to scan ALL
memory banks
When shipped from the factory using default settings all
memory banks are UNLINKED so may only be scanned
on an individual basis by selecting the scan bank identifier
as per section 8-4 using the SUB DIAL or numeric keypad
("1 1 1 1 1 ", "2 2 2 2 2 ", "3 3 3 3 3 " etc).
It is possible to quickly link ALL memory banks together
so they will be scanned as one group. In fact it is possible
to select any number of banks to be scanned as a group
such as 1, 3, 4, 7, 8, 9.
