Do you have a saved K3 configuration file? If so, do an EEINIT (see
Parameter Initialization in the manual) and reload the configuration.
That will give you something to accomplish while waiting for the support
people to wake up this morning.

Thank you Don, but you need to read my latest reply to Gary.
The SHIFT LO NORM button is not working correctly - so what you are
both suggesting will not work.
I have read the Parameter Initialisation page in the manual.
I have tried reinstalling the Configuration Menu.
Until you appreciate that the K3 front panel buttons are all totally
corrupted then any cure to this problem cannot be found.
If your description is correct, this could be a hardware problem
involving communication between the buttons, the MCU and the rest of the
rig. Have you tried removing the front panel assembly, and checking for
any connector-related problems?
Search the pdf version of the K3 Assembly Manual for "Removing the front
panel" and follow the instructions there. Carefully lever off the entire
assembly (using the screwdriver slots provided) and then back-track
through the assembly instructions, checking for any possible connector
problems involving the Front Panel Board and its various plug-in
modules. Then, equally carefully, plug it all back together, and this
may be enough to re-establish communication.
