BLOCK EDIT

ACCEPT
REJECT
TO CHANGE PRESS ENTER
Tips - If more than a few
V.D.I. numbers are to be
changed, use BLOCK
EDIT. Settings from -95 -
+95.
Caution: You cannot view
the current settings or the
recent changes you have
made while still in BLOCK
EDIT. You must press
MENU, ARROW up to
EDIT and ENTER. The
arrows can then be used to
view the settings. When-
ever the arrows are used
while in BLOCK EDIT, you
will change every V.D.I.
number viewed to the
ACCEPT or REJECT status
whichever one appears on
the display.
(Discrimination section)
14. BLOCK Edit
Speeds major EDIT changes by dragging ACCEPT
or REJECT with ARROW controls.
Allows major EDIT changes to be completed
quickly. EDIT is for individual V.D.I. number
changes and/or viewing of the current settings.
BLOCK EDIT is for changing multiple V.D.I.
numbers, or ranges.
Select BLOCK EDIT with the ARROW controls
and press ENTER. The ENTER control can be
used to select either ACCEPT or REJECT. The
ARROW controls can then be used to drag that
ACCEPT or REJECT status as far as desired
through the V.D.I. number range. When a V.D.I.
number or range of numbers appear that you want
set differently, stop dragging with the ARROWs,
press ENTER to change the ACCEPT/REJECT
status, and then drag that new status as far as you
desire. ENTER changes ACCEPT/REJECT;
ARROWS drag that ACCEPT/REJECT status;
ENTER again changes ACCEPT/REJECT; AR-
ROWS drag that new ACCEPT/REJECT status,
etc.
BLOCK EDIT not only saves time if large sections
of the V.D.I. target numbers are to be changed, it
also allows peace of mind in the certainty of how
all the V.D.I. numbers are set. In the same amount
of time it takes to view all the V.D.I. number's
current status in regular EDIT, you can set them
the way you desire in BLOCK EDIT.
