d&b audiotechnik D40 - Interaction Methods

Startup
Cursor conventions
The graphical user interface features two types of cursors, the
«Position» and the «Edit» cursors.
Position
cursor
The Position cursor marks the selected menu item by
a white frame. Depending on the type of screen
item, the Position cursor allows you to either activate
a function, navigate through the menu or enter Edit
mode Þ Edit cursor.
Edit
cursor
In Edit mode, the Edit cursor is marked by a yellow
frame. Turning the encoder to the right (clockwise)
increases the current value, turning the encoder to
the left (counterclockwise) decreases it.
To leave Edit mode press the encoder or simply
select the respective menu item again. The color of
the frame will change from yellow back to white
again Þ Position cursor.
Interaction
The operating concept allows different methods of interaction and
configuration.
Touchscreen in combination with the rotary encoder
This method may preferably be used to set values of input fields
such as Gain settings, CPL, Delay or EQ settings.
▪ Select menus, menu items and/or function elements by selecting
the relevant item.
▪ Enter/edit values by turning the encoder.
▪ Confirm entered/changed values by selecting the respective
item again or the confirmation button («OK») or pushing the
encoder.
Rotary encoder only
This method is mainly intended for users who are familiar with the
user interfaces of other d&b amplifiers.
▪ Select menus, menu items and/or function elements by turning
the encoder to move the Position cursor to the relevant item.
▪ Access the selected item or function element by pushing the
encoder.
▪ Enter/edit values by turning the encoder.
▪ Confirm entered/changed values or leave Edit mode by
pushing the encoder.
