FS4 Frame Synchronizer/Converter v1.1
Similarly, the EMBED and AES Channel Select buttons selects either Embedded or AES
audio, and activates the three AUDIO Menu Group buttons to the far right. The last
selected AUDIO Menu Group button for that audio type will be illuminated and its last
selected parameter menu will be displayed. Pressing an Audio Channel Select button
deselects the Video Channel Select button, and vice-versa.
This design allows rapid menu access, reducing the number of menus to scroll through,
and time is saved when button presses automatically return to their last selected menus.

Alphanumeric
Display
The four-line alphanumeric display shows either status menus that can be scrolled
through but not altered, or parameter adjustment menus that are numbered and
grouped by function, whose parameters can be altered.
Status Menus
Status menus generally have a feature on the left, and the current status or setting for
that feature next to it. Information can generally be shown in two columns, three
columns, or four columns (two columns side by side).
