AUTOMATIC RETURN TO HAND-SET REGISTRATION ('0'-PISTON):
While playing with a hand-selected registration, it may be necessary to use one or more combinations that have already
been fixed. In this way, the original hand-set registration will be either cancelled or modified. However, by pressing the
'0' piston, the original hand-set registration will be automatically restored. If you wish to cancel this also, press the General
Cancel piston
'A'.
PRESETS
The Presets are activated through the tumb pistons PL.I, PL.II, T. The corrisponding led indicators are located on
the left of the display. Their contents are
ADDED to the hand-set or combination registration inserted. They are:
PLENUM I, PLENUM II, TUTTI.
PROGRAMMABILITY OF THE PRESETS
All the presets indicated above can be programmed by the organist in the following manner:
CRESCENDO (see note 3)
The Crescendo Pedal is located over the pedalboard, next to the swell expression pedal. The balanced pedal activates,
in gradual stages,
20 levels of sound intensity: from pp to ff. The Crescendo level is indicated on a digital display above
Manual II. The Crescendo operates on the entire organ, and its effect is
ADDED to the registration either hand-set or
drawn by a combination piston.

The contents of the 20 levels of the Crescendo are programmable by the organist as follows:
1
