14. MIDI LOOPBACK check Connect MIDI cable to [MIDI IN] and [MIDI OUT] (J401) PUSH [HOLD MANUAL BANK↓] FOOT SW (SW22). [HOLD MANUAL BANK↓] LED lights red. LCD displays [MIDI LOOPBACK]. Confirmation of data transmission will be done. If transmission is OK, LCD displays [MIDI LOOPBACK Success], 7 segment LED displays [ok]. Otherwise, LCD displays [MIDI LOOPBACK 00 timeouted], 7 segment LED displays [nG].

19. INPUT CIRCUIT NOISE check Push [PRE-AMP] FOOT SW (SW23) [PRE-AMP] key lights red. LCD displays [GAIN +60]. About this check, adjust [TUBE] of ACCELERATOR, [SOLID STATE] of ACCELERATOR, [TUBE] of ENERGIZER, and [BOOST] of ENERGIZER to 5. Make sure that noise level increases. When 7 segment LED displays [on], DSP has +60dB gain and increase white noise of [OUTPUT] jack (PHONE, L/MONO, R jack) and [SEND] jack sound.

23. EX PEDAL1 check The 7segment LED is displayed EX PEDAL’s AD value if the PEDAL is moved. Make sure that this EX PEDAL’s AD value is the same as below table and LCD displayed [PEDAL2-V]. *MIN : raise EX PEDAL this side. *MAX : lower EX PEDAL till that contacts gum lightly.
Page 12
27. EX PEDAL2 / Z PEDAL check The 7segment LED is displayed vertical AD value of EX PEDAL2 if the PEDAL is moved vertically. Make sure that this AD value of EX PEDAL is the same as below table and LCD displayed [PEDAL1].
Page 13
29. PEDAL setting Turn on the power holding the [PEDAL2 SETTING] key, and the indication [PDL Calibration PEDAL2-V…min] appears on the LCD. With the EX PEDAL2 fully raised, press the [STORE/SWAP] key, and the indication [PDL Calibration PEDAL2-V…MAX] appears on the LCD.
Page 14
33. ACCELERATOR check Turn the [SOLOD STATE] knob and the [TUBE] knob counterclockwise extremely, and output sound from all [OUTPUT] jacks will be muted. Turn the [SOLID STATE] knob clockwise, and output sound from all [OUTPUT] jacks will be louder. Turn the [SOLID STATE] knob counterclockwise again, and turn the [TUBE] knob clockwise, and output sound from all [OUTPUT] jacks will be distorted and louder.

Tube Adjustment Specification 1. Overview This specification describes the method to adjust differences due to characteristics of tubes. 2. ACCELERATOR (Input side) adjustment There are two methods of adjustment. The first is the adjustment that only the ANALOG PCB is used for, and the second is the adjustment carried out after the unit is assembled.
