ADJUSTMENT REMOTE COMMANDER

The adjustment remote commander is used for changing the
calculation coefficient in signal processing, EVR data, etc. The

line (LANC). The resultant data of this bi-directional communication
is written in the non-volatile memory.

terminal.
2) Set the HOLD switch of the adjustment remote commander to
