PUSH ENCODERS
These six push encoders are used to adjust the various elements located
directly above them. Each of the six encoders can be pushed inward to
activate a button-press function. This function is useful when controlling
elements that have a dual on/off status that is best controlled by a button,
as opposed to a variable state that is best adjusted by a rotary control.

UP/DOWN/LEFT/RIGHT NAVIGATION CONTROLS
The LEFT and RIGHT controls allow for left-right navigation among the
different pages contained within a screen set. A graphical tab display
shows which page you are currently on. On some screens there are
more parameters present than can be adjusted by the six push encoders
underneath. In these cases, use the UP and DOWN buttons to navigate
through any additional layers contained on the screen page. The LEFT
and RIGHT buttons are sometimes used to confirm or cancel confirmation
pop-ups.
