2.3. MCU-004 Keys and Functions – Differences from MCU-002
The MCU-004 keys work almost the same as the MCU-002 except for the following unique keys and features.
No
Uniqueness with MCU-004 – Overview
MCU-004 vs. MCU-002
1
A buzzer is built in.
2
The [Switch Disp.] key switches an active display when there are
multiple MFDs in the network.
3
A big rotary knob offers a friendly operation similar to the RotoKey™
of TZT9/14/BB.
4
The [Edge] key works differently between TZT9/14/BB and
TZTL12F/15F.
TZT9/14/BB
It works the same as the [ENT] key of MCU-002
such as showing RotoKey™ menus and selecting the RotoKey™ or contextual menus.
TZTL12F/15F
It activates the Edge Swipe functions. Instead of swiping the screen from the top, bottom, right, or left edge,
press the [Edge] key and move the joystick in the same direction as you edge-swipe with your finger.
[Edge] + Joystick [Up] : Layer
[Edge] + Joystick [Down] : Quick Access page
[Edge] + Joystick [Right] : Data Box
[Edge] + Joystick [Left] : Universal setting options
(1) Buzzer
A buzzer is built in. When an alarm is generated on the display, the sound will be heard at the MCU-004.
(2) Switch Disp.
The [Switch Disp.] key switches an active display when there are multiple MFDs in the network.
In the example at right, there are two (2) displays.
The MCU-004 is connected to Display No. 1. By
default, the MCU-004 controls Display No. 1. Pressing
the [Switch Disp.] key, the MCU-004 now controls
Display No. 2. Section 4 describes how to group
controllable displays in the network.

(3) Large Rotary Knob & Joystick
The large rotary knob offers a friendly operation for zoom in/out similar to the RotoKey™ of
TZT9/14/BB. The big joystick makes it easier to move the cursor. With TZTL12F/15F v3.01 and
higher, pushing the joystick selects the highlighted items in contextual menus, settings, Layer, etc.
(4) Edge Key
The [Edge] key works differently between TZT9/14/BB and TZTL12F/15F.
TZT9/14/BB
It works the same as the [ENT] key of MCU-002 such as showing RotoKey™ menus and selecting the
RotoKey™ or contextual menus.
TZTL12F/15F
(1) It activates the Edge Swipe functions. Instead of swiping the screen from the top, bottom,
right, or left edge, press the [Edge] key and move the joystick in the same direction as you
Edge Swipe with your finger.
(Sample Screen: Layer)
[Edge] + Joystick [Up] : Layer
[Edge] + Joystick [Down] : Quick Access page
[Edge] + Joystick [Right] : Data Box
[Edge] + Joystick [Left] : Universal setting options
(2) The [Edge] key also works to select the highlighted items in contextual menus, etc. like pushing the joystick.
Tip – TZTL12F/15F v3.01 or later with MCU-002 for Edge Swipe
With the MCU-002 connected to the TZTL12F/15F v3.01, the MCU-002 [ENT] key works
the same as the MCU-004 [Edge] key. Edge Swipe functions are accessible by pressing the
MCU-002 [ENT] key and moving the joystick.
