Power-Up Functions
Power-up functions allow you to reset DriveRack VENU360 presets and settings, lock out the front-panel controls, and force
the VENU360 to power up with the output mutes enabled. These power-up functions are accessed by pressing and holding
certain buttons upon power up. The following section describes the power-up functions available in the VENU360 and how to
use them.
Initialize With Mutes On
This power-up function forces the VENU360 to boot up with all outputs initially muted. This will prevent audio from passing
through the VENU360’s outputs until you’re ready to manually unmute the output channels.
To initialize the VENU360 with mutes on:
1�
Press and hold any
MUTE
button then power on the VENU360. Keep the button pressed until the LCD display reads,
“
MUTE BUTTON HELD All outputs will be muted after initialization.”
then release the
MUTE
button.
2�
The VENU360 will now initialize with all outputs muted regardless of the mutes’ previous state when the VENU360 was
last powered down.
NOTE:
The INITIALIZE WITH MUTES ON option is a one-time operation. After performing this power-up function, the
VENU360 will revert back to normal operation – meaning the VENU360 will power up with all mutes set to the state they
were at when the processor was last powered down. The exception is if you have enabled the MUTES POWERUP option in
the Utility menu, in which case the VENU360 will always power up with all output mutes enabled – see
for further information on this feature.
