7. Maintenance
If a console should start to misbehave or operate erratically, the problems encountered
can usually be attributed to one of two causes:
•
normal wear and tear, eg. switches failing and becoming intermittent.
•
physical abuse, eg. transit damage, spilt drinks, shorted cables.
Parts most likely to wear out in time with normal use include the following:
•
switches
•
faders
•
LCD backlights
•
digital encoders
These are generally easy to spot and there is little that can prevent such wear from
occurring, however careful use will maximise their life. Almost all parts of the console
can be damaged by physical abuse, however there are a number of things that can be
done to prevent this kind of damage:
•
Cover the console when not in use, eg. before, after and between sets.
•
ALWAYS insert a diskette into the floppy disk drive when the console is to be
transported. This prevents damage to the drive mechanism.
•
Do not use spare audio lines for DMX cable. If so, there is a danger that the
connector will get plugged in to the wrong signal.
•
Do not smoke over the console.
•
Do not obstruct the rear ventilation holes.
•
When cleaning, do not use solvents and never allow the entry of liquids into the
console. Use only a damp soft cloth for cleaning.
The console operating software is extremely complex. It is recommended that the
console be deep cleared at the start of each new tour.
