Press View then Connect to display the

number, whether links are off or on for
that step (Off=”-”, On=down arrow), and
whether the step is Simple (S) or Complex
(C) (theatre stack steps are always
Complex.)
The second line shows the Wait In, Wait Out and LTP Wait times for the
step.
The third line shows the Fade In, Fade Out and LTP fade times for the
step.
