Genesys Power Up/Down Procedure
Power Up Procedure
u
Switch on the Ethernet hub (if used).
u
Switch on the console. The computer will start the Windows 7
operating system (OS).
After about 30-60 seconds, the Genesys software will open, at which point
the console will be ready to be used.
If the console is used before it has been booted, there will be no
communications between the console and the computer. This will mean
the console cannot function as intended, even though it will still pass
audio.
It is therefore important that the computer is fully booted before
the console is used.
Note:
If for any reason, after several minutes, the Windows OS does not start
after power-up you may see a message with the following option
Start
Normally...
on screen. Connect a Windows compatible keyboard to one of
the USB ports at the back of the computer cassette, and select this option
using the arrow keys then press Enter. Otherwise, if this message is not
on-screen then power-cycle the console, the system will boot up, make
sure you select
Start Normally
and press Enter. Remove the keyboard,
make sure a monitor is connected to DVI 1 for normal operation.
After attempting the above if you still cannot start the Windows OS
contact AMS Neve for technical assistance.
