KENTON PLUGSTATION USERS MANUAL

Familiarising yourself with the PLUGSTATION.

This section will provide a brief overview of the KENTON PLUGSTATION front and rear panels and facilities.

THE FRONT PANEL OF THE KENTON PLUGSTATION

DIAGRAM 1: THE FRONT PANEL OF THE KENTON PLUGSTATION

The front panel of the KENTON PLUGSTATION is relatively simple. It features the main

DATA ENTRY

rotary control knob, which works also as a push button control for switching between menu options, and for

entering deeper levels of editing within the unit. A short push (short press of under 1 second) for many

operations will take you through the menu options, and down to deeper levels of editing. A long push on this

control (hold down for approx 1-2 seconds) will return you to the previous menu, and if held down for longer

to the top level of menu editing The LED display will give you an accurate view of where you are in terms of

editing parameters, and level of editing. The top of the display features the 4 main sub-sections of editing for

the PLUGSTATION. The 4 main sections (which we will refer to as

LABELS

later in this manual) are

STATUS, CARD, PARA

and

VAL

. Below is a brief introduction to each of the sections. If you wish to first

read through the installation and setup up section of this guide then please do so, if you are unsure about

connecting or powering your PLUGSTATION at this stage.

The front panel power switch is located on the left hand side of the unit. Pressed down is for power on, and

up for power off. If you power on, are using the PLUGSTATION in conjunction with your SW1000XG and do

not have the PLUGSTATION correctly connected to the SW1000XG, you may see the message

WAITING

FOR COMPUTER PRESS FOR STAND ALONE

scroll across this screen. If you are using the

PLUGSTATION as stand alone system, just press the DATA entry knob, and it will go into stand alone mode

This is a kind of fail safe system to avoid wordclock problems at a later stage. This is a default fail-safe

mode, which can be turned off if required (see later in this manual). If you do have the SW1000XG D-SUB

connecter attached, and the SW1000XG/PC is powered up, and you still see this, it may be that the master

wordclock from the SW1000XG connection cable (which attaches the PLUGSTATION to the 44-WAY D-

SUB connector backplate) is not correctly fitted or is faulty.

If you are using PLUGSTATION with the SW1000XG, and it is powered up after the PC has been powered

up, and this message repeatedly appears, please power down your computer and PLUGSTATION,

disconnect the 44-WAY D-SUB cable from the back of PLUGSTATION and from the D-SUB backplate on

your computer, and then re attach it, making sure it fits well.

If the wordclock is correctly detected on restart, PLUGSTATION will then go through an initialisation

sequence lasting approximately 5 seconds. At this stage the PLUGSTATION is checking its internal

operating system, and scanning for any installed PLG cards and optional boards, this is covered in more

detail in the section on Installation and setup of PLG cards.

If you turn on PLUGSTATION and you have yet to install any PLG cards, after the first stage boot sequence,

the error message

NO PLG CARDS FOUND

will scroll across the screen, please refer to the section on

installation of PLG cards to stop this message appearing. PLUGSTATION will function without a Yamaha

PLG card installed, but only if you have the optional Y and Z boards fitted, and then only as a multiple output
