“Ten Easy Steps” troubleshooting ideas.
Did you choose a STEREO (or Omni) channel for the input?
Unfortunately this is not routed in Scene 000. Choose a MONO (or SB168-ES) channel or go to page 15 for how
to patch.
Are you using a mic or DI that needs +48V?
Go to page 9 for information about how to turn on the phantom or try a dynamic mic/passive box.
Read page 9 and still can’t get phantom?
Try the 48V master on the SETUP page (this is not scene recallable and will not reset with scene
change. See page 5).
Are there any recall safes set?
This means that certain parameters of Scene 000 may not have been recalled because they are safe from
recall changes. For example, the channel you have chosen may have a DCA over it or there might be a patch
change. Check in CH JOB > RECALL SAFE. Clear all of these and recall Scene 000 again.
Is SENDS ON FADER active?
This means you are pushing up an aux send and not the channel master. You can tell easily when you are
in sends on fader mode because all the green [SEL] indicators are on except the selected channel. In
normal mode, the [SEL] indicators are off and the selected channel is lit.
My M7CL-48ES and SB168-ES combination doesn’t work.
Have you set the dip switches correctly
and before
you powered up the units?
Have you connected the cables correctly? OUT>IN>OUT>IN?
Is AUTO CONFIGURE enabled? (Check in the RACK and choose the EXT-ES HA tab at the top.)
Troubleshooting.
I can’t get +48V to work.
+48V is switched on/off in the HA pop-up, but remember there is also a master switch on the SETUP
page. This is not covered by scene recall.
The aux sends are in big steps when I turn the encoder;
I need a fi ner control on my output delays;
Try pushing and turning at the same time. This gives a fi ne resolution mode.
When I press the navigation keys, the screen changes but the faders don’t copy to the chosen bank.
This is a feature often used to keep access to the DCA masters even when other banks are chosen. Press
and hold the navigation key until it fl ashes. Now that fader bank is locked even though the screen
information changes. To undo, just press and hold again.
I’ve recalled Scene 000 but some faders and other things have not reset to zero.
Are there any recall safes set? This means that aspects of Scene 000 may not have been recalled because
they are safe from recall changes. Check in CH JOB > RECALL SAFE. Clear all of these and recall Scene
000 again. See page 5 for details of things not reset by scene 000.
The fader has stopped working!
Is SENDS ON FADER active; this means you are pushing up an aux send and not the channel master. You
can tell easily when you are in sends on fader mode because all the green [SEL] indicators are on except
the selected channel. In normal mode, the [SEL] indicators are off and the selected channel is lit.
Have you ‘moved’ a channel or changed the patch or both? Check the patch and the channel name/
number to confi rm they are what you expect.
Where are the output delays?
They are outport delays, found in the OUTPUT PORT pop-up via the SETUP page.
Where can I fi nd out more information?
