4.4 File Transfer Via the USB Port

On the front panel of the amplifi er is a USB Type A port which can transfer fi les either direction between a USB fl ash drive and the amplifi er. These fi les can be of two types: A Preset file, which contains amplifi er DSP settings for a specifi c loudspeaker/ amplifi er confi guration.

A Device file, which contain all 50 presets and the current amplifi er DSP settings.

When you plug in the drive, the amplfi ier defaults to a fi le-exchange mode and is muted. Then you can load or save individual fi les. No computer is needed for this fi le transfer.

1.The fi le must reside in the fl ash-drive root (top-level) directory.

2.Plug the fl ash drive into the amplifi er’s USB port on the front panel.

3.The screen asks if you want to load or save a fi le. Press the left Encoder to LOAD a fi le.

4.The screen asks whether you want to load a device fi le or preset fi le. Press the left Encoder to load a device fi le, or press the right Encoder to load a preset fi le.

5.The screen says “Select File to Load.” Turn an Encoder to select the fi le.

6.If you are loading a preset, the front panel shows the acceptable fi les in the fl ash drive root directory. Turn the Encoder to view the fi les; press the Encoder to select. Note: You can’t explore folders or subfolders.

7.The amplifi er loads the fi le into its memory and displays the Eject Menu. To stop the transfers, press the left Encoder. To continue with more transfers, press the right Encoder.

8.Unplug the fl ash drive. The amp is unmuted and returns to the determined state.

9.If desired, recall the preset following the procedures in Sections 4.3.2 and 4.3.3.

How to transfer a file from the amplifier to a USB flash drive:

2.The amplifi er goes into “File Mode” and is muted.

3.The front panel asks if you want to load or save a fi le. Press the right Encoder to select SAVE.

4.The screen will ask whether you want to save a device fi le or preset fi le. Press the left encoder to save a device fi le, or press the right encoder to save a preset fi le.

5.If you chose to save a preset fi le, the screen says “Select Preset to Save.”

6.The screen shows the preset fi les in the amplifi er’s memory. Turn an Encoder to view the fi les; press the Encoder to select.

7.The amplifi er’s Preset fi le will be saved to a default fi lename in the fl ash-drive root directory. If the default fi lename already exists, a number will be appended to the end of the fi lename.

8.You will see the Eject Menu. To stop the transfers, press the left Encoder. To continue with more transfers, press the right Encoder. Unplug the drive when fi nished.

9.Unplug the fl ash drive. The amp is unmuted and returns to the determined state.
