4.4.2 Recalling menus using the function
keys
1) Simply press the function key where you have
previously assigned the menu you want to
recall.
If you have not assigned a menu to the function
key that you press, the display will remain
unchanged.
2) If you used the SHIFT key [23] to assign the
menu to F11 through F20, press and hold down
the SHIFT key before pressing the function key
to recall the "shifted" menu.
4.5 Storing and recalling user
setups
The RC-898 allows you to store and recall almost
all parameters set using the menu system, so the
same remote control unit can be used with a vari-
ety of different equipment setups with the mini-
mum of reconfiguration.
This is a great time-saver, as not only are the RC-
898's parameters stored and recalled, but the set-
tings for the DTRS units connected to the RC-898
are also stored and recalled. In this way, up to six
DTRS units can be reconfigured to preset configu-
ration patterns with the press of one key.

4.5.1 Saving the current setup

1) From the top menu, move the cursor to menu
group F, and press SELECT:
K e y

2) Move the cursor to
and press SELECT:
