Specific Keys and Their Functions
Some keys have more than one function printed on them, but only one of the functions is enabled
at any given time. Table 6 describes the function of each key on the front panel. If a function is
restricted to a certain mode or modes, the table lists the applicable mode(s) within parentheses.
