THE ONBOARD CONTROL PANEL AND MENU SYSTEM
There are a few global rules about how the Control Panel operates, which will be dealt with before menu specifics:
1) You are only ever two button presses from recording: if you are anywhere in the menu system then one press of the Monitor/Rec button will engage Monitor mode, and a second press will
begin a recording. If you are already in Monitor mode then a single press will begin a recording. During recording the only responsive button is STOP/SELECT, which finishes the recording
and returns the system to Monitor mode.
2) The colour of the LED ring on the Control Panel shows the current mode of the recorder. The different modes are: Monitor =
Orange
; Recording =
Red
; Playing =
Green
;
Pause/Setup =
Blue
.
3) When the
Hold Switch
is on there will be a padlock symbol at the top of the screen, and none of the other buttons will respond until the
Hold Switch
is set to be off. The image below
shows the screen with the padlock symbol:
