Resetting the VGS50

This function erases all of the user presets and restores the VGS50 to the original factory presets.

Caution! This procedure will destroy and reset ALL user presets in the VGS50 memory. Be sure you want to erase the memory and start fresh before continuing with this procedure.

1.Disconnect the power from the rear panel of the VGS50.

2.Press and hold the Low EQ Select button, and the Parameter Select button while reconnecting the power.

The display will briefly show “rS” to indicate that it has reset. After the reset has occurred, the expression pedal needs calibrating and is indicated by the letters “tdn” in the display. Rock the expression pedal forward to the toe down position and press the flashing footswitch 1. The display now reads “tup”. Rock the pedal back to the toe up position and now press the flashing footswitch 3. The expression pedal is now calibrated for use with all programs.

The VGS50 is basically a maintenance free device. There are no user serviceable parts inside of the unit. Opening the chassis will void your warranty.
