Command Execution

The command execution procedure is the same for all com-
mands. In all command pages Knob 1 is "EXEC" (EXE-
CUTE) and Knob 5 is "EXEC&CONT" (EXECUTE &
CONTINUE). The currently selected command is executed
when either Knob 1 (EXEC) or Knob 5 (EXEC&CONT) is
pressed.
When Knob 1 (EXEC) is used to execute a command, the dis-
play that was showing immediately before executing the com-
mand is automatically recalled after execution has finished.
When Knob 5 (EXEC&CONT) is used to execute a com-
mand, the same display is retained after command execution
so that you can immediately repeat execution of the same
command. Press the [COMMAND/EXIT] button to return to
the command menu without executing the command.
