These multi-purpose switches serve as a keypad for alpha
entry, channel selection/navigation, and status viewing and
editing. The function of the primary switches is determined
by the BANK, VIEW, GO TO and STATUS switches.
BANK A-D
These switches control the channel/bank focus of the
CHANNEL MATRIX primary switches., and are labeled
BANK A (1-32), BANK B (33-64), BANK C (65-96) and
BANK D (97-128).

the CHANNEL MATRIX. If a BANK does not contain any ac-
tive channels, pressing its switch will have no effect.

ers, use GO TO and VIEW, explained in the sections that
