Table 9 – 20 Unique Assignable Button Functions
The other assignable functions may not be as useless as they seem. If you happen to have the optional
MH-31 or MD-100 microphones, it might be useful to assign redundant functions to the microphone
buttons. Each of the custom switch functions may also be assigned to any of those three buttons through
adaptation.
