Control Panel Operation

There are two basic front panel modes:
• Transport (default mode) - PLAY, STOP, FFWD, REV, REC. These functions are
active at all times. By default the unit starts in a "record standby" or "transport
idle" state.
• Display - when you press the display button, an overlay is placed on the LCD
screen. When you push one of the remaining menu buttons (Status, Config, or
Media) Ki Pro Ultra will display:
• Status/Alarm reports
• Configuration menus
• Media formatting operations
Display Button Sequence
Press the Display button twice to bring up audio VU meters. Pressing a third time
brings up the last menu selected. Press again to turn the overlay off.
