Click actions for each knob are context dependent. The SELECT knob is mainly used to navigate and a short click on it will select an item on a "Selector Screen". Inside a "Controller Screen", short clicks can be used to rotate between layers (LAYER knob) or between controller pages (SELECT knob). "Bold-clicks" are normally intended as shortcuts for jumping to specific screen like "layer options", "main menu", etc. Clicking the BACK knob generally jumps to the previous screen in the workflow sequence.
