Hmm.. yeah, it's not the most user friendly system, especially when first getting used to it. Why they don't use more than one line of LCD screen is beyond me, it's not hard to have 4 these days.
Having got used to mine now, I love it. Easy to use and only takes a couple of buttons to operate. But it takes a bit of learning. I just had to read sections of the manual as I needed to find out more.
Big tip is to give it lots of juice. Not 12v, go for 15 or 16v. Anything up to 18v I think is the limit.
And replacing the CR2032 internal battery before it getting flat causes you problems isn't a bad suggestion.
Back to the menu system... just remember you can hold down the menu key to access the quick shortcut stuff. Keep holding it down and it cycles through most common items. Also be aware the menu system is context sensitive. That is, at start up it'll take you to align etc, then once aligned different alignment options will be available, etc. That takes a little getting used to as menu options appear and disappear, and change sequence, but it does save button pushes in the long run.
