Problems ?
The channel is routed but there is no
audio. If it is assigned to a VCA group
check that the group fader is up.
The audio groups do not work. Check
the setting of the fader master 1-8
GRP/AUX mode switches.
The PAN control does not work. For
main mix check the setting of the BLEND
control. For groups check the GRP PAN
ON switch.
The console takes a long time to
power up. Check the rear panel slide
switch setting. RS232 takes longer to
boot in than MIDI.
The channel does not respond to MIDI.
Check that it has not been made safe
(green SAFE/EDIT LED on in normal
console mode).
