Abstract

A separate group of function preset controls is provided for each of a plurality of individually adjustable functions, to select predetermined values for such functions or, alternatively, to allow manual adjustment thereof. A supervisory preset control is provided for controlling the operation of several different function preset controls, in accordance with an overall plan including predetermined settings for a plurality of functions. In one mode of operation of the supervisory preset control, each of the function preset controls is placed in its manually adjustable mode, so that the individual functions are all controlled by manual adjustment. In other modes of operation, each of the function preset controls is placed in one of its fixed modes, to establish a predetermined fixed combination of function settings.
