3 Recalibrate
With this function you can select minimum and maximum values for the left wheel, right
wheel, foot pedal, data slider, and volume slider. You can also select a center value for
the left wheel as well as the footswitch polarities and LCD contrast. Select the controller
to be re-calibrated with the data slider. The Emax II controls should be recalibrated
periodically in order to compensate for normal wear and tear on the controls themselves
or if the controls ever behave strangely.
With the exception of the left wheel, LCD contrast and the footswitches, you will first set
the minimum value and press
ENTER , then the maximum value and press ENTER . For
the left wheel, you can also set the center value. After making your choices, the display
will ask if you want to save results. If so, press
YES ; otherwise, press NO . The wheels
and sliders should be calibrated so that the “Post” setting ranges from 0-255.
The recalibrate footswitch function allows the Emax II to use either of two types of
footswitches (normally open or normally closed). If your footswitch seems to work
backwards, try changing the setting of the footswitch select from
Footswitch
On=Closed to Footswitch On=Open .
The LCD contrast control allows you to adjust the LCD viewing angle for easy reading.
On the rack mount Emax II, the LCD angle is ajusted from the front panel and not from
the recalibrate menu.

not connected. This function allows you to play the Emax II without a keyboard. Select
Special 5 and the display says:

Moving the slider will select which note is played and buttons 0-9 play the sound.
