If you turn the DATA knob more than ten clicks, of course, the value of the whole
parameter will be incremented or decremented by the number of clicks. In this way, with
very little effort, fast accurate editing of numbers can be achieved using only the two
control knobs. The best way to learn how this works is to practise; after a short time, it
should become second nature.
The number buttons
As an alternative to turning the knobs, you can also press the number buttons for direct
entry of data. Use the
+/< button to position the cursor at the left of a
numeric field, and the
-/> button to highlight digits to the right, one at a time.

Now if the CURSOR knob is turned clockwise one click, the first four digits will be
highlighted: 1244
5.67, and turning the DATA knob one click clockwise will produce:
1245
5.67.
Introduction
non-numeric values, turning the knob will display all the options in order. Normally,
there is no other entry procedure - simply displaying the correct value of a parameter
using the DATA knob selects and stores it into the S1000's memory.
When editing numeric parameters, some of the values can be quite large, and it would be
necessary to turn the DATA knob thousands of times (literally) in order to go through the
whole range if the value was only changed by 1 for every click of the DATA control.
There is an alternative to turning the knob thousands of times, though. As you move the
cursor with the CURSOR knob onto a numeric field, you will notice that not all the
digits are covered by the cursor immediately. Instead, they are highlighted one at a time
from the left.
If a number such as 12345.67 is displayed, and the CURSOR knob is turned so that only
the first three digits are highlighted (we'll use underlining here to represent highlighting
here), thus: 123
45.67 . Turning the DATA knob clockwise by one step now will increase
the value of the last highlighted digit, so:124
45.67 .
