Quick Start Guide
The following are Quick Start instructions which will get one started for most setups. Further details are provided in the rest
of the manual.

synced.

• Menu Navigation: Use the push button (Click) to scroll Down and Select by a Click & Hold 1 second.

Jam Once. If Cross Jamming is required, use Jam Once.

in Jam Once (JO) mode.
