3. Row Control

The row control menu at the end of the panel row allows you to see what the row and buses are assigned to, as well as control some aspects of the row.

Tip: The TD3 and TD4 panels have one of these vertical displays at either end of the row. The displays mirror each other.

The TOUCH HOME and TOUCH LOCK buttons are used to return the display to the Home menu (TOUCH HOME) and lock the display and mnemonics so that it can't be accidentally tapped (TOUCH LOCK).
