Other Functions

Using an Expression Pedal

You can use an expression pedal connected to the CTL/EXP 1 and 2 jacks to control the VR-6HD with your foot.

Adjusting the Pedal (Pedal Calibration)

The first time you use an expression pedal, you must calibrate (adjust) the

pedal so that it will operate optimally.
In some cases, an expression pedal might no longer operate optimally

due to the passage of time or changes in the operating conditions. If you

notice problems such as slight movements of the pedal causing a major

change in volume, or if the video fails to switch when you press the pedal,

you should execute calibration.
