Basic Operation
Lexicon
The PCM 81 offers an extensive set of informa-
tive display messages which can be activated
from the front panel.
The front panel switches perform various
functions when pressed. Most of these functions
are activated on release of the button. If you
want to know more about the function of a par-
ticular button (without actually executing any
action) press and hold the button down. While
you are holding down the button, an
explanatory message will appear on the display.
The activation of an Info message overrides the
normal function of the button, so that no action
is taken on release.
