Select a button from the Program, Preview or Source
rows, as desired. The selected button will illuminate.
To indicate that this button is in a shifted state, on
the Flash SoftPanel a small light above it will
illuminate, while on the Control panel and browser
SoftPanel, the button will blink.
Press the [Shift] button again, which will turn off the
illumination of the shift button, and return all source
buttons to their unshifted state. The control panel will
continue to have the selected source blinking and
the small light on the SoftPanel will stay on so you
know a shifted source has been selected. Once a
direct or unshifted source is selected the blinking will
stop.

The default mode for shift is that it turns off after the first use, called one-shot shift.

will illuminate orange.

To turn off Lock Shift:
