Roland VS-2480 DRIVE, VGA,

28—UTILITY Menu Parameters

Roland VS-2480 Owner’s Manual www.rolandus.com 361

This parameter sets whether metered input, track, Aux master and FX return channel

signals are shown before or after their faders on the MB-24.

TIME DISPLAY determines the time shown by the MB-24’s time counter. It can show:

•

MEASURE/BEAT

—using the current time location display’s (Page 126) measure and

beats counter.

•

TIME CODE

—using the current time location display’s time code counter.

•

CLOCK/SCENE

—so that the current clock time appears at the left of the counter,

and the number of the currently selected scene appears at its right.

When the METER SCALE parameter is set to x1 (“times 1”), displayed levels are shown

in their actual scale. Set METER scale to x2 to zoom in for more precise metering.

DRIVE

This on/off switch lets you start up from a Zip drive with the VS-2480’s internal drive

turned off. Select the Zip drive as your current drive, turn IDE DRIVE off, and then

restart the VS-2480, making sure a VS-2480-formatted Zip disk is inserted in the Zip

drive. To re-activate the internal drive, turn IDE DRIVE on and restart.

This sets the VS-2480’s SCSI ID number—see the

VS-2480 Appendices

. The VS-2480’s

SCSI ID is set to ID7 at the factory. You can set this parameter from 1-7.

The following parameters let you set up the VS-2480’s output to a connected VGA

monitor—we’ve already described them brieﬂy on Page 64, but here’s some additional

detail. If you’re not using an external monitor, these settings have no effect.

The VGA OUT switch turns the VS-2480’s feed to a connected monitor on or off.

Every monitor constantly re-draws, or “refreshes,” the image it displays. The faster the

monitor can do this, the less likely you are to notice it doing so. When a monitor

refreshes too slowly, you can see it ﬂicker, which can wear on your eyes. You can set the

parameter to 60Hz, 66Hz, 70Hz or 75Hz.

Changes made to the SCSI SELF ID parameter take effect after restarting the VS-2480.

Consult your VGA monitor’s documentation to learn its recommended refresh rate. If

you select a value the monitor doesn’t support, image quality may be poor, and damage

to the monitor may result.
