located in the middle of the black field, and is supplemented at 
the right-hand side with a number within a range of -1 to 101. 
This value should be between 45 and 55. In the case of -1 or 101,

correspond with its actual position, a continuous acous-
tic signal is generated as a warning when the readjust 
softkey is pressed.
