Settings and Menus
All parameters of the TECSource can be viewed and changed within the menu.
The menus are constructed with the most used parameters first. To change any
setting, press Menu to enter the menu then rotate the knob to select the
parameter to change. Press the knob to begin changing the value. As a visual
indication that you are in edit mode, you will see an asterisk appear next to the
value. Once you have made your change, press the knob or Menu button to
store the value. Pressing the Menu button will store and exit the menu, while
pressing the knob will store the value but leave you in the menu to make
additional changes.
Some settings are contained inside a sub menu, such as communications
settings. To access the sub menu, simply press the knob to enter the sub menu
when its name is displayed.
