Problem: Can’t hear a channel that is part of a Group

Possible Solutions:

The Group might be muted. Check the lower (yellow) LED in the channel buttons. A lit

yellow LED indicates the channel is muted. To unmute it, press the M

ute

button while the

Group is selected. The yellow LED must be unlit in order to hear the audio on that channel.
The channel volume is all the way down. In Group edit mode, select the channel and

check the level for that channel by looking at the LEDs in the Volume indicator. If no LEDs

are lit, then the channel is turned all the way down. Raise the volume by turning the

channel V

oluMe

knob; re-save the Group and Preset if necessary.

Problem: The A-Net LED is on, but there is no sound

Possible Solutions:

The A-Net Active LED indicates that the input to the receiving device is properly

connected to another A-Net device. It does not indicate that all devices in a system are

properly connected, however. If you have two Personal Mixers connected together, the

second Personal Mixer’s A-Net LED will light because the first Personal Mixer is correctly

connected to it. Check that each device in the chain has a Cat-5 cable plugged into it.
Check that the A-Net cables are connected in the correct order. The Cat-5 cable connected

to the first Personal Mixer should be connected to the A-Net In jack. The next device is

connected from the A-Net Out on the first device to the A-Net In on the next.

Problem: A Preset was saved with a stereo link active but when the Preset is recalled the channels are mono.

(Or, a Preset was saved with mono channels, but on recall the channels are linked.)

Possible Solutions:

The status of the stereo link is set by the Link switches on the input module. If a Preset is

recalled and the position of the Link switch is different from when the Preset was saved,

the Preset will be adjusted to agree with the current settings on the input module’s front

panel. If this happens, simply change the position of the Link switch on the input module.

Your current mix will be updated immediately.

Problem: A channel was assigned to one Group and now it is suddenly part of a different Group.

Possible Solutions:

When you link a pair of channels with the Link switch on the input module after a Group

has been created, it is possible that channel characteristics could change. This includes

the volume, pan, mute status, and Group assignment. The rule to remember is that the

even-numbered channel (the right side of the pair) will inherit the characteristics of the

odd-numbered channel (left side of the pair).
