Calibrate Pedal This control allows you to achieve full range output of any connected 10k-100k continuously variable footpedal.

From the main System menu, select Calibrate Pedal and press Yes. A display prompt will allow you to choose to continue the calibration procedure, overwriting any pre-existing pedal settings, or to discontinue the procedure.

Pressing Yes in response to the display prompt displays:

Move pedal from min to max . . .

Move your footpedal from its minimum to its maximum position. 127 should be displayed when you reach the maximum point of footpedal travel.

Press Yes to save the calibrated settings and to return to the System menu. Your settings will be stored as part of the current Setup.

To restrict the active range of a pedal, position the pedal within the desired range, then select Calibrate Pedal and press Yes. When the display prompts you to move the pedal, move it only within the restricted range, then press Yes. Once calibrated, any pedal positions below the range will produce pedal controller values of 0. Positions above the range will produce values of 127.
