Y-485 COMM. I/O

Only one parameter is available here: the data which will
be recognized by the unit over the Y-485 network. There
are three values, selectable with the F encoder: OFF, PGM
CHANGE and ALL. When OFF, no Y-485 messages will be
recognized by the unit, when PGM CHANGE, only Pro-
gram Change messages will be recognized by the unit, and
when ALL, any data coming over the Y-485 interface will
be recognized.

NOTE

These parameters are entirely independent of any data received at the MIDI ports.

PARAMETER COPY

This allows you to initialize new equalization settings from a “template” setting and to copy
channel settings. The “template” settings allow you to set the 6dB/12dB boost mode.

Use the F encoder to decide what setting you will use as
the default, and where you will copy it to. There are two
“template” settings available: “12dB MODE” and “6dB
MODE”. Both are stereo 30-band graphic equalizer set-
tings, with one allowing a maximum of

±12dB, and the

other

±6dB. Select the “template” you want to use using

the F encoder. The “template” will be copied to the edit
area.
After the “template” settings, turning the F encoder will
bring up two more options: from L-DATA to R-DATA and
from R-DATA to L-DATA. This allows you to copy from
one channel to another.
Using the G encoder, you can select what data is to be cop-
ied between channels: ALL (self-explanatory), EQ (the
graphic equalization settings), FILTER (the notch filter set-
tings), or DELAY/ATT (the delay and attenuation set-
tings).

Whatever data you have chosen to copy (“template” or channel data) press the

[STORE] key

to start the copying process. If you have not set the software protection on, the message “**
EXECUTING” will appear briefly on screen as the data is copied. If software protection is
on, nothing will appear on screen, and no data will be copied when you press the

[STORE]

key.

SOFTWARE PROTECT

Use the F encoder to turn memory protection on or off.
When ON, the unit will not respond to Program Change
messages received over MIDI or Y-485. You will not be able
to store or copy any new or edited equalization settings if
protection is ON. “ERR ** NOW PROTECT” will appear on
the screen if you try to store data while protection is ON.
