Power. Insert the power IEC socket into the rear of the main unit and the power plug into a
suitable power outlet. Turn on the power source.
Start-up. The system will do a short test, during which the display on the main unit will show
that it is working correctly. Check the system by pressing any of the handset buttons to give
a cue. The display on the main unit will show that a cue has been received.
Resetting the Main Unit. To reset the main unit to all the factory default settings, discon-
nect the power from the main unit, wait 20 seconds and then press and hold the down arrow
button beside the main display on the main unit while reconnecting the power. The unit will
attempt to start and pause when the main display shows the volume level at maximum.
Release the down arrow button and the system will then re-start and restore all factory de-
faults.
Internal Speaker. Normal reset setting of the internal speaker function is off. The speaker
can be turned on and off using the button on the front panel of the main unit. This does not
affect the audio output via the 1/4 inch jack or the Comms Loop-through system
Tone & Volume. Normal reset mode for this is volume mode (on). When the Tone and
Volume button is on, the arrow buttons beside the main display will control the level of the
audible cue tones. A relative level will be shown on the display. When the Tone and Volume
button is off, the arrow buttons will now control the tone selection and the display changes
with each tone option.
USB Devices. Before using the computer for a presentation the USB device must be com-
municating with the computer. Check for this by listening for the familiar ‘ding dong’ tone
emitting from the computer speakers when the USB is connected. Alternatively check device
manager. Failure to do so will render the MasterCue V6 unusable.
USB Ports Enable. (A, B, C) Normal reset mode for this is Operator Control mode (on).
This function switches between direct control of the computer running the presentation
(Presenter Control), and indirect control where the operator has to control the presentation
upon receiving the visual and audio cues from the presenter (Operator Control). This is
connected to the computer USB port via a USB series A-B lead (provided). Once this has
been selected for Presenter Control mode the unit will communicate directly with the PC and
control the PowerPoint presentation.
USB Ports Enhanced mode. At power-up the USB enable buttons will flash once for nor-
mal use or twice for enhanced mode. If a computer has been connected before in normal
mode it will not work in enhanced mode, until it has been deleted from the device manager
and then re-discovered. Or reset the port to normal mode by holding in the Port button at
power-up so it only flashes once.
NOTE: It is recommended that you always fully test Presenter Control mode with the
computer thoroughly during rehearsals!
