When parameters are divided among several pages, for example, the Input Channel Atten-
uators, which are divided among four pages, the page containing the parameter for the cur-
rently selected channel is selected automatically when channels on different Layers are
selected. For example, if the Input Channel 1–24 Attenuator page is currently selected, and
then you select, say, Input Channel #25 by using the LAYER [25–48] button and [SEL] but-
ton #1, the Input Channel 25–48 Attenuator page is selected automatically.
The currently selected page in a group, and the parameter selected on that page, are remem-
bered when you select another group of pages, so when you return to that group, by press-
ing its [DISPLAY] button, that page is displayed with the same parameter selected.
The Auto Display preferences can be set so that certain pages appear automatically when a
corresponding control is adjusted. For example, if the "Auto EQUALIZER Display" prefer-
ence is on, the EQ page appears automatically when a SELECTED CHANNEL EQUAL-
IZER control is operated. See page 234 for information on the Auto Display preferences.

Display History

DISPLAY HISTORY
BACK
Pressing the DISPLAY HISTORY [BACK] button selects the previous page in the buffer.
Pressing the DISPLAY HISTORY [FORWARD] button selects the next page in the buffer. If
there are no pages in the buffer, nothing happens when these buttons are pressed.
You can scroll forwards or backwards through all the pages in the buffer by pressing and
holding the [BACK] or [FORWARD] button respectively. Scrolling like this continuously
cycles through all the pages in the buffer. You can clear the Display History buffer by press-
ing the [BACK] and [FORWARD] buttons simultaneously.

Display Page Controls

Operation of the various buttons, rotary controls, and faders that appear on the
display pages is straightforward. The only items that require a special mention
are the parameter boxes, such as the GEQ Insert parameter box shown here.
Operation of these boxes consists of two steps. First you select a value, typically
by using the Parameter wheel or INC/DEC buttons. Second you confirm your
selection, while the value is flashing, by pressing the [ENTER] button. If you
select another parameter while the value is still flashing, it remains unchanged.

Parameter Windows

When a rotary control in the SELECTED CHANNEL section is operated, if the
corresponding parameter does not appear on the currently selected page, a
parameter window like the one shown here is displayed while the control is
adjusted. If the control is not adjusted for awhile, the window closes automat-
ically. If the Auto Display preference for the adjusted parameter is on, the page containing
that parameter appears instead of this parameter window.
Confirmation Messages
For certain functions, the DM2000 prompts you for
confirmation before executing them, as shown here.
Press YES to execute the function, or press NO to can-
cel. If no action is taken for awhile, the confirmation
window closes automatically and the function is not
executed.
The Display History function works like the history function on a
Web browser, and allows you to return quickly to up to eight recently
displayed pages. Each time you view a page for more than five sec-
FORWARD
onds, it's added to the Display History buffer.
