The E2’s display screen is four lines high. Throughout this chapter, entire menus a re shown for ease of ref-
erence, unless otherwise noted.
Please note the following important m enu rules and conventions:
• The top line names the current m enu, in upper-case letters.
• Subsequent lines typically display two fields:
-Forafunction, t he left-hand field names the function. The right-hand field shows the function’s current param eter (or value).
In the preceding illustration, Black Invalid is a function and On is its current value.
-Forasubmen u, the left-hand field names the s ubmenu that y ou can access. The right-hand field displays a double arrow
(>>), indicating that a s ubmenu is available. In the preceding illustration, USB Backup/Restore and Ethernet are two of
the available submenu s. To use a submenu, scroll to it and press SEL. Then scroll through the list that appears.
-Thenavigation cursor (>) in the left-hand column indicates the c urrent line on which you can take action. This arrow moves
as you rotate the ADJUST k nob on the front panel. When you reach an editable field and press SEL, the navigation cursor
changes to an edit cursor (#).
