Lenovo. ThinkVision. Will buy another one. Not expensive. You can get a good 22" jobby for 40 smackers now.

You can get them for free and that's without sticking it in your bag when nobody's looking.

Having keys to select the digit, and then doing steps by the encoder is OK since you can select the resolution that way. The encoder of a HPAK 33120 or the more modern 33522 Generator works that way, and I find it quite useful. The encoder of the HPAK 36312 power supply is not useful for me. It always steps the least significant digit and accelerates if you turn if faster - you don't have any control over the resolution. A 10 turn pot is still the best way for me, since it gives you decent resolution and you've got all the control within your fingers in a predictable way. Accelerating encoders are quite inpredictable for my human intuition. Even with the CMU200's encoder, which is high qualtity and gives a pretty good feedback when operating it.

Do you have the means to select just which digit to adjust with the encoder and then that digit is highlighted while selected ?

The E36312 doesn't, the 33120, 33522 and CMU200 have.
R&S CMU200 also has that acceleration feature additionally, and this totally messes up your setting if you rotate the knob to fast (80% of usage, 20% it's just what you want).
E36312 is completely useless (accelerates only), 33120 and 33522 are fine (they don't accelerate).
