Status lights 

If a problem is suspected, the first place to 
check is the status lights. If the green LED 
displays a steady light, the unit is operating 
normally in Play Mode. If there is no LED 
illuminated, the system is not powered. If 
only the red LED is illuminated, the unit is 
not ready and requires attention. 
 
If the green LED is flashing, the unit is in 
Programming Mode. Please see the chap-
ter “Installation, Programming Mode” for 
instructions on programming the device. 

 
Programming errors 

If the device becomes unresponsive, it is 
possible errors have occurred in the config-
uration file, or a pedal was pressed during 
the period when the VRD was either open-
ing or closing.   
 
The first thing to try is simply unplug and 
replug your device into its USB port. If that 
doesn’t solve the problem, trying activating 
Programming Mode using the slide switch, 
or by holding down a pedal while plugging 
in the unit.   
 
If you are successful in opening the VRD 
and can open the Active folder, try to de-
lete the pedals.txt file or move it (cut & 
paste) to a different location. Switching 
back to play mode or power cycling 
(replugging) the unit will regenerate a de-
fault pedals.txt file in the active folder.   
 
See page 7 for the default actions of your 
device. If these steps don’t restore the 
functionality of the device, contact Kinesis 
Technical Support for further assistance.
