Model VM08 Owner’s Manual

Before Operation (IMPORTANT Be sure to read below before first using your VM08.)

* Remove the insulation paper

The VM08 uses a memory back up battery inside. You

 

will find a piece of insulation paper attached to avoid

 

current dissipation. When using the VM08 for the first time,

Insulation paper

turn ON the power and then remove the insulation paper. The

insulation paper is easily removed by pulling it in direc-

 

tion of arrow as shown at right.

 

* Caution when powering on

There is no power switch in VM08.

Power is switched ON/OFF simply by plugging and unplugging the VM08’s AC adaptor plug.

Be sure to switch off power to the monitor ampli- fier connected to the VM08 output or fully retard the input level controls to prevent dam-

age to connected speakers when switching power ON/OFF in this manner.

RESET switch

If the VM08 is not to be used for a long time, be sure to unplug the AC adaptor from the wall outlet.

* Reset of VM08

It is possible for the computer to malfunction at power ON/OFF or by electro induction noise from light- ning. In this happens, switch the power ON/OFF to the VM08 several times. If it does not return to normal operation, press the rear panel [RESET] switch with a slender ball point pen or similar tool. This returns all settings to the initial figures setup at shipping from the plant. This procedure can be used to clear all stored scene memories.

<Please remember this!>

If reset is executed with the INPUT and MASTER raised simultaneous with start up of this unit, the LEVEL ADJUST key/FADER ADJUST key will blink. This indicates that the VM08 has entered the Level Adjust Mode/Fader Adjust Mode because of the difference between present fader position and the fader position at start up following reset. To exit from this mode, retard all faders to the [MIN] position, and the key blinking will stop.

* Internal battery for the memory back up

The internal battery has a life expectancy of about two years. When the battery runs low and its voltage falls below a cer- tain level, the warning message "BattEmpty" will appear in the display. If you continue to use the unit an old battery, your stored scene memories will be lost when the power is turned off. Do not try to replace the battery yourself as there are no user-serviceable parts inside. Please ask your Fostex distribu- tor or an authorized service station to do the job.

<Please remember this!>

There is an automatic internal battery voltage check function in the VM08.

Refer to [Setup mode] on page 27.
