Getting Started

Operating Modes Explained

Home Mode

This is the default operating mode. It is the mode the VENU360 enters when
it initially boots and is the mode which displays the home screen. There are
various home screens to choose from when in Home mode. See

‘The Home

Screens’ on page 14

for more information on each of the available home

screens and how to access them.

You can get back to Home mode from any menu by repeatedly pressing the

BACK

button. How many times you must press

the

BACK

button to return to Home mode is determined by how deeply you have navigated in the current menu.

Wizard Mode

This mode is entered by pressing the

WIZARD

button and walks you

through the system configuration and optimization process with step-by-step
instructions. See

‘Using The Wizards (Wizard Mode)’ on page 17

for

more information on using the Wizards.

Configuration Mode

Configuration mode is entered by pressing the

CONFIG

button. This mode

is used to make manual configuration changes to a preset and to create
more-advanced configurations not possible with the Setup Wizard alone.

When in Configuration mode, the ‘Configuration Mode’ icon will appear in the
upper left-hand corner of the LCD display and the

SELECT

wheel and

DOWN

buttons can be used to navigate the on-screen configuration map to select a module to configure. As each module is

selected, the title at the top of the screen will display descriptive information about it. The icon in the upper-right corner of the
display indicates the input/output channels affected by the selected module. Once the desired module is selected, pressing
the

SELECT

wheel will present the options available for configuration. See

‘Using Configuration Mode’ on page 24

for

more information on using Configuration mode.

Edit Mode

Edit mode is entered by pressing the

EDIT

button. This mode is used to

edit processing module parameters (e.g., Compressor parameters, Crossover
parameters, etc.).

When in Edit mode, the ‘Edit Mode’ icon will appear in the upper left-hand
corner of the LCD display and, just as in Configuration mode, the

SELECT

wheel and

DOWN

buttons can be used to navigate the on-screen configuration map to select a module to edit. As each

module is selected, the title at the top of the screen will display descriptive information about it. The icon in the upper-right
corner of the display indicates the input/output channels affected by the selected module. Once the desired module is
selected, pressing the

SELECT

wheel will enter its menu, where its parameters can be edited. See

‘Editing Processing

Module Parameters (Edit Mode)’ on page 43

for more information on using Edit mode.
