Appendix A Miscellaneous Information

QUANTUM

A.1 Hard & Soft Resets

Occasionally, it may be necessary to perform a “Soft” or “Hard” reset. The Soft Reset resets everything except user pro- grams. The Hard Reset Procedure will reset all programable information back to the factory defaults.

To do a Hard Reset:

Hard Reset (Factory Reset):

1.Turn on power with <STORE> button held until "!" appears on LCD

2.Press <PREV PAGE> to activate the reset sequence. Any other button will abort the reset.

To do a Soft Reset:

Soft Reset (System Reset):

1.Turn on power with <Meter/Monitor> button held until "*" appears on LCD

2.Press <PREV PAGE> to activate the reset sequence. Any other button will abort the reset.

A.2 Change Default Startup Program

The QUANTUM turns on in "Program Mode" and is ready to use without any other keystrokes. The QUANTUM "remembers" the last program number used, and stores that program number as the default startup program. Occasionally, you may wish to change this setting. Do so by pressing and holding the PROGRAM button during power up.

A.3 Front Panel Lockout

The QUANTUM’s controls may also be locked, effectively disabling the front panel. Pressing and holding the UTILITY button, while powering on the QUANTUM displays an instruction screen telling you to press the PREV PAGE button to toggle the locked status. When locked, the program name line flashes between the name of the program and the text, "Locked!"

Unlocking the QUANTUM is accomplished the same way. Note that when locked, the QUANTUM can still be con- trolled via MIDI operations.

A.4 Flash Downloads

The QUANTUM has the ability to update its operating system (OS) to the latest version available over the Internet. If your PC can receive/transmit MIDI data, then you are in business.

1.Connect the MIDI output from your PC to the MIDI input of the QUANTUM.

2.Access the World Wide Web.

3.Go to www.dbxpro.com to access the latest OS version.

4.Download the latest OS version and all attached software.

5.Follow instructions on the website.
