Calling up the Operation Displays
Press the buttons listed below in order to call up the appropriate displays for the
various functions of the PSR-740/640.
Pressing one of these buttons instantly calls up the relevant display for the selected function.
See the function tree chart for details (page 22).
If you’ve selected several different functions’ displays in succession, you can “retrace your
steps” and revisit each display by using the [BACK] and [NEXT] buttons at the left side of
the display. Of course you can also directly select the desired displays by pressing the
appropriate buttons (as listed above).

How to leave the current display
As shown in the function tree chart (page 22), there is a wide varierty of functions on the
PSR-740/640, each with its own corresponding display. In order to leave the display of
each function press the [EXIT] button.
Since the PSR-740/640 has so many different displays, you may occasionally find yourself
confused as to which operation’s display is currently shown. If this happens, you can
return to “home base” by pressing the [EXIT] button several times. This returns the PSR-
740/640 to the default display — the same display that appears when the power is turned
on.
