In the ‘Options’ tab, You may adjust the following parameters: 
 
-

 

Startup  delay,  [ms]

:  It  may  be  useful  if  Your  tube  amplifier  needs 

warmup. The device will not switch the outputs during that period.  In 
milliseconds. 

-

 

Always  start  with  last  output  states

:  Check  this  if  You  want  the 

FlexControl  to  memorize  the  states  of  the  outputs,  so  at  the  next 
powerup to start where You left. 

-

 

Reset range calibration of analog inputs

: Relevant only for input pins, 

which  are  configured  with  analog  function.  Check  this  box  when 
changing the potentiometers, connected to the analog inputs. 

-

 

Use  mutex  memory

:  enables  memorization  of  non-mutex  digital  outputs  (if  there  are  any)  against 

currently active mutex output. When the same mutex output gets active again, the rest of the outputs 
will be restored automatically. 

-

 Defines the MIDI channel to ‘listen’ for incoming messages.
