Editing for the Model 6221 is basically the same as editing for the Model 6220,
except for the following differences:
• Cursor control is provided by the Cursor Keys located under the rotary
knob.
• When at a menu level that requires an item to be selected, the Rotary
Knob can also be used for cursor control. Turn the knob clockwise to move
the cursor to the right, and turn it counter-clockwise to move the cursor to
the left.
• With a value displayed, value adjust can be performed using the Rotary
Knob. Turn it clockwise to increment a digit, and turn it counter-clockwise to
decrement a digit.
• Pressing the ROTARY KNOB performs the same function as the ENTER key.
Press the knob to select or open a menu item, or to select a displayed value.
