Will the AF-5400T have all the buttons like the new 5000 units to make it easy
To go directly to the screen you want?

To fit in the same hole with the same size screen there is no way to add more buttons or knobs. It will have the new touch screen and utilize the same buttons and knobs for the interface. The new touch screen interface makes changing screens really easy.

rob,
this seems like a reasonable upgrade for us 4500 guys.the knobs on the 4500 aren't a problem once you get used them but the touch screen will make it easier.
i'm hoping the pricing will be set to make it a realistic option for us.

Rob, On your video of the touch screen there are screen buttons that when touched opens that screen. On the 4500 update will these same on screen buttons be available?

Don

[Rob Hickman]

Yes, the touch screen buttons will be available.

Rob,

So just so I'm understanding this correctly, it doesn't matter if you have the panel or tray mount 4500s, the new 5400t will fit in the same real estate? Will we send the 4500s back to you to have the bezels swapped out and the upgrade done?

The current plan is to use your bezel, knobs, and button board.
