Every menu on the 48 has a number assigned to it.  The list is on page
697 of volume II.  The number for the VAR menu is 2.  The command MENU 
will recall a menu to the bottom of the screen.  So, the code you will
want to use is \<< 2 MENU />>.
 
You might also want to assign this piece of code to the key 31.2 in USER
mode.  Every time you press HOME on the keyboard, the VAR menu will
appear.  The code: \<< HOME 2 MENU \>> 31.2 ASN
Naturally, this will only work if you leave the 48 in USER mode at all
times.
