Front panel operation

The front panel LCD can be used with the three adjacent push buttons to view status information and configure the operation of

menus, and change parameter values. The OK button selects the
currently displayed menu item or confirms a parameter change.

together returns up a menu level, usually aborting a parameter
change.

name, and the lower line (left column) shows the parameter itself
