Receiver Setup Screens
When the SL-2 is attached, you can access Receiver Setup screens for any of the supported SuperSlot receivers available.
Receiver Setup screens provide access to individual receiver RF scanning, menus for receiver setup, RF frequency adjustment, RF
and audio level monitoring, transmitter recording status, transmitter Limiter/Overload/Mute status (A20-RX/A10-RX only), and more.
The transmitter status and menu settings available depend on the receiver.

using the Select knob.
