Changing a key assignment
To do this, select a key to which a function has already been assigned.
You can choose one of these actions:
• Edit (e.g. change key label)
• Clear (cancels the current key assignment without prompting you to confirm)
• Overwrite (e.g. create a new function including key label)
To use these options, follow the procedure described in "Selecting a function".
Selecting a Key Level (only extension module)
Change between key levels by pressing the control rocker.
On the key extension module, you can see the current key level on the horizontal scroll bar on the top and bottom edge of the display.
The display content changes according to the selected key level. The function key names are also displayed.
If no function keys have functions assigned to them, the display does not change.
