Sliders
Sliders typically modify a DAC setting in the radio. A slider appears as a line
with a movable button, and two arrow buttons either side. Moving the

To adjust a slider
■ Keyboard: select a slider using the Tab key. Press the left and right arrow
keys to adjust the value in the box in steps of 1, or the Page Up and Page
Down keys to adjust the value in steps of 10. To move the slider above
the upper safe limit of a field, hold shift and the right arrow key. The box
will turn red.
■ Mouse: select a slider by clicking on it. Click the < and > buttons to
adjust the value in the box in steps of 1, click on the line either side of
the movable button to adjust the value in steps of 10, or click and drag
the movable button. To move the slider above the upper safe limit of a
field, hold shift and click the > button. The box will turn red.

from component damage. Only move sliders over this limit
if you are certain that it is necessary for the radio being cal-
ibrated.

button by pressing the Space bar.
