General
The front panel buttons have different functions when the MCE325 is switched from operating
mode to setup mode. Legends on the buttons indicate their operating mode functions; legends
under the buttons indicate their setup mode functions. All of the front panel buttons were pre-
programmed for a certain type of operation. This is the default configuration. Operation for the
default configuration is described first, and is then followed by front panel programming
instructions to alter the operation.

Momentary/Latching Button action
The channel selector buttons and the MIC ON button feature a special momentary/latching dual-
action: if a button is pressed and released quickly it will “latch” (turning “on” if off or turning
“off” if on); if the button is pressed and held slightly longer, the action will be momentary and the
button will turn off when released. All other buttons are latching-only (press to activate, press to
release).
