Note that the front panel volume control is electronic,
unlike the traditional mechanical potentiometer volume
controls on most conventional audio equipment.
Electronic volume controls require more than one
rotation to go from complete silence to maximum
volume level, and there is no fixed start or stop point.
As the volume control is changed a visual indicator will
appear on screen (Figure OSD-13) to provide a visual
reference of the volume level. Volume changes will also
be shown on the front panel display (Figure FPD-8).
