Interpretation of the display pages is easy and intuitive. After selecting a given group
of functions using the SETTINGS buttons, you simply press the same button again to
scroll on to the next display page.
Since the display pages have a cyclic structure, to recall a video page already displayed,
just keep pressing the button of the group of functions selected until the page you
require appears.
If you press the button of another group of functions, the video page required will be
displayed at once.
