記憶に頼つて操作しなければならないという欠点
があつた。 However, in the conventional multiple rotation axis mechanism, the rotation axis A,
It was only possible to rotate B and C and attach them to the front panel, but it was not configured to illuminate the vicinity of the knobs H 1 , H 2 , and H 3 attached to the rotation axes A, B, and C, so it was difficult to use at night or at night. Turn the knob in a dark place
Regarding the operation functions of H 1 , H 2 , and H 3 , even if there is a function display on the front panel, it is dark and difficult to read.
The drawback was that you had to rely on memory to operate it.

発光素子を必要とするという問題を有していた。 However, the mounting position of the light emitting element I in the above-mentioned multi-rotation axis mechanism of the electronic component is provided at the proximal position of the fixed shaft D that fixes the rotation axes A, B, and C. Since the distance from the base end Da to the shaft end is long, the amount of light emitted from the light emitting element I is not sufficient, and therefore a light emitting element with a large capacity is required.
