The user may choose to indicate or not indicate if pre-emphasis has been applied to
the outgoing digital audio signal. The default is "None" and rarely will any user
want to set the value to "CCITT" or "50/15uSec" which are the two types of empha-
sis available in the AES/EBU status block.

Save, Delete, Load Buttons; H/W Installed

At the rightmost side of the Delta Control Panel are the Save, Load and Delete but-
tons as well as an "installed hardware" set of radio buttons.
SAVE, DELETE, LOAD: The Delta Control Panel will retain the last settings that
were entered, except for mixer channels with solo settings -- they will default back
to 'on', and not to solo or muted. However the Save, Delete, and Load functions will
allow you to store different sets of control panel settings under different configura-
tion file names. These configurations are then available for recall at a later date and
time.
Clicking the 'Save' button brings up a dialog box prompting you to name the current
configuration. Once you have done this, click 'OK', and your control panel settings
have been saved to disk. If you decide that you no longer need a particular config-
uration, click the 'Delete' button. Highlight the name of the configuration file that
you wish to delete, and click the 'OK' button. To recall a set of saved control panel
settings, click the 'Load' button. Highlight the name of the configuration file that
you wish to recall, and click 'OK'. Those settings will now appear in the Delta
Control Panel and the driver will automatically update the hardware.
H/W INSTALLED: Several Delta cards may be installed in a system at one time
(note: this option may not exist in the first release of Delta software drivers). This
section displays all (a maximum of four) installed Delta cards, and allows you to
select which particular card is under the control of the control panel software. To
