1.  SETUP

Press and hold this button to begin the FBX setup mode. Filter 

LEDs (light emitting diodes) will flash 5 times and the SETUP 

LED stays lit. You are now ready to set FBX filters.

2.  READY

The READY LED lights continuously when the automatic FBX 

setup process has completed. This indicates your unit is ready 

for  operation. The  total  number  of  filters  available  for  feed

-

back filtering is 12; in the factory default setting, your unit will 

automatically enter READY mode when the 10th filter is set. 

Alternatively, you may enter READY status with fewer Fixed 

FBX filters in place, simply by pressing the READY button at 

any time. At this point the LED flashes indicating the Fixed filters 

are unlocked. Press READY again to lock the Fixed filters, and 

the LED will light continuously.

3.  BYPASS

Bypass mode takes the unit out of the signal path so that it will 

have no effect on the program. In active mode, the unit controls 

feedback automatically. The red BYPASS LED lights when the 

unit is in bypass mode.

4.  SIGNAL LEVEL

The LED ladder indicates the signal strength relative to the 

FBX's input clip level.

9.  A/C Power Input

The FBX2410 Series is factory configured to operate at either 

115 VAC or 230 VAC. Using the wrong input voltage may cause 

permanent damage to the unit and will void the warranty.

10.  Fuse

This equipment is fitted with an IEC power inlet incorporating a 

built-in fuse holder.  To change the fuses in this socket:

1. Disconnect the power cord from the unit.

2. Pull out the fuse holder and remove the old fuse.
3. Install a new fuse into the holder. Replace only with one 

of the following fuses:
• 230 VAC: 0.06A, 10 W, 0.080 A T fuse
4. Refit the fuse cover.
