Setting Up PGM / AUX Buses
"System -> Definition -> Parameter = Aux"
This branch of the 'Tree Definition' defines the 20 summing buses which can be assigned from the control
surface. Note that the bus locations are called
Aux 1
to
Aux 20
, although they may be used for any type of bus:
PGM, REC, AUX, etc.
Once a bus is assigned to an "Aux n" location, it will become available to the operator via the
BUS
assign buttons
on the Central Module (unless the
Hide
option is active). Up to five pages can be configured, where Aux 1 to 4
will appear on page one; Aux 5 to 8 on page two; and so on.
