Most of their Yagis, including the original 3-el that I have, have front 
panel button on the controller for Normal, Reverse, and Bi-Directional. 
I haven't looked at how the elements are programmed for the Bi setting. 
It takes maybe 5 sec to switch between them.

I mostly use Normal, occasionally Reverse to minimize spinning the 
rotator, and Bi when I want to work both directions (mostly, JA and SA, 
but occasionally to protect my frequency when working JA.
