System Settings and Diagnostics

Each Alpha-Link unit is configured by default to

work in a simple system. Many users however

may find that these defaults are not appropriate

for their setups. To cater for such situations, the

default settings may be adjusted using a set of

virtual switches, accessed from the Alpha-Link

front panel by placing the unit into a diagnostic

mode. These virtual switch settings are non-

volatile and are retained when the unit is power

cycled.

Diagnostic Mode

Holding the

SAMPLE RATE

and

CLOCK

buttons for at least 1.5 seconds when the Alpha-Link unit is switched on will

put it into diagnostic mode, indicated by a flashing

XS

LED. Diagnostic mode can be cancelled either by power cycling

the unit or by simultaneously pressing both the

SAMPLE RATE

and

CLOCK

buttons once more.

Any changes will be lost if the unit is power cycled; the internal memory is only written to if diagnostic mode

is exited by pressing both

SAMPLE RATE

and

CLOCK

buttons. Please allow time for any changes to take effect.

Picking a Page of Virtual Switches

Several pages of virtual switches are provided, the current page being indicated in AMBER by the lower row of meter

LEDs where the Channel 17 LED indicates Page 1, Channel 18 indicates Page 2 etc. Pressing the

METERS

button will

step through the available pages – each Alpha-Link model is different and may provide additional pages.
