Programming and Operating Concepts
Video Recorder – User Manual 38
Once within the mode selected in Step 5, scroll through the mode’s MAIN MENU using the Up Arrow and
Down Arrow buttons. Verify each menu choice as indicated in Figure 3-2.
Repeat Steps 3 through 6 for the last of the three mode selections possible.
Having completed the preceding exercise, changing the instrument’s mode should now be a simple task.
Furthermore, a fundamental understanding of how the Menu, Up Arrow, Down Arrow, and Enter buttons
work should now be at your fingertips.
Now use the Menu, Up Arrow, Down Arrow, and Enter buttons to verify the ON LINE, PROGRAM, and
MAINTENANCE mode sub-level menus detailed in Figure 3-3, Figure 3-4 and Figure 3-5. The sub-level
menus shown represent only the first sub-level below each mode’s MAIN MENU. There are several sub-
level menus, not indicated here, that run further below each first sub-level. Note that once inside of a
sub-level menu, regardless of how “deep” the level is, a press of the Menu button will return you to the
next highest menu level. In case you get lost within a mode’s sub-level menu, keep pressing the Menu
button until the ON LINE, PROGRAM, or MAINTENANCE mode MAIN MENU appears on screen.
Be advised that Figure 3-2 through Figure 3-5 comprise a basic “road map” for navigating the menus
within the programmer’s three modes. Sections 4 through 8 of this manual will provide detailed
descriptions of each menu choice and complete guides through all the sub-level menus that run below
the levels indicated in these Figures.

The following menus contain all possible options. Your instrument may not include some items shown here.
