When pattern data or sequence data is created or edited, or the output channel
allocations are changed, the pattern that is actually output will not be updated
until the new settings are transferred to the pattern generation unit.
There are two update methods: auto and manual. The update modes are set up
with the Update item in the SETUP ! Run Mode menu. Table 2-4 provides
functional information for both modes.

Auto Changes are reflected in the hardware as soon as they are entered.
Manual Changes are reflected in the hardware when specified by you.
NOTE. The response to edit operations while in Auto mode may be slow when
there is a large amount of data being edited. In such cases, it is more efficient to
perform a number of edit operations and then update the output data in manual
mode.
