Relation to processed keys

available DME is automatically allocated to the DME wipe. If all of the DME
channels are in use, then it is not possible to select a DME wipe.
If in a Setup menu a setting has been made for DME allocation, that Setup
menu setting takes precedence (see “Setting the assignments of DME channels
to use on the individual M/E banks” in Chapter 16 (Volume 2).
