Figure 4-1: Shuttle Knob 
The shuttle knob is located to the right of the LCD screen and is used to change setup 
parameters. Note that it cannot be used to move the cursor position between menu fields. Use 
the UP and DOWN arrow keys in the FUNCTION keypad for this. 
The shuttle knob can operate in one of two distinct modes of operation: 
MODE  DESCRIPTION   
IMMEDIATE mode  Any time the ENTER key is pressed, the RS Series returns to 
its normal mode of operation. In this mode, changes made with 
the shuttle knob or the data entry keypad will take immediate 
effect. The IMMEDIATE mode is useful for slewing output 
values such as voltage and frequency and observing the effect 
on the load. 
SET mode  When the SET key located in the FUNCTION keypad is 
pressed, changes made with the shuttle to any output 
parameter will not take effect until the ENTER key is pressed. In 
this mode, any changes made to a setup menu will be blinking 
to indicate the pending change condition. This mode allows 
changes to be made to all output parameters and executing 
them all at once by pressing the ENTER key.
