Undoes the last setting actions step by step. Some actions cannot be

revoked: locking the touchscreen with [Touch Lock], and saving data. The undo
stack is deleted during the following actions: Reloading settings from file, and ref-
erence waveform actions (save, load and preset with active reference waveform).

Redo

Recovers the undo steps in reverse order.
