Omnia-6ex Use and Operation Manual – V: 1.20

Powering Up

When the Omnia-6EX is first turned on, there is a few seconds of delay as the system starts up. You should notice a

rectangular flashing cursor on the right screen followed by revolving Omnia logos on both screens, and then the

main metering and menu screens should appear.

After approximately ten seconds from power-up, audio will be present from the analog, composite and headphone

outputs. The AES/EBU outputs also become usable at this time. However, full initialization of the ports is not

complete for several more seconds and there could be a brief, sub-second interruption while the AES/EBU IC’s

configurations are being verified by the operating system. After 25 to 30 seconds, the Meter and Main Menu

displays will appear on the left and right LCD screens respectively. At this point, the Omnia-6 is fully operational.
