Expression Pedal Calibration - DigiTech BP355 Owner's Manual

Expression Pedal Calibration

The Expression Pedal on the BP355 needs to be recalibrated for use after a factory reset has been
performed. This calibration procedure is automatically entered after a factory reset procedure. (You
can also initiate the calibration procedure by pressing and holding the Up and Down Footswitches
for approximately 5 seconds.) In the event the Pedal's calibration fails, or if the Pedal does not function
properly, it can be re-calibrated using the Pedal Calibration procedure. This will not erase the User presets.
The procedure for Calibrating the Expression Pedal is as follows:
1. Press and hold the Up/Down Footswitches until PDLCAL appears in the display (BYPASS, TUNER,
and Exit will be displayed before PDLCAL is accessed, after about 5 seconds.)
2. When the Display prompts you with TOE DN, rock the Expression Pedal forward (toe down) and
press either the Up or Down Footswitch.
3. When the Display prompts you with TOE UP, rock the Expression Pedal back (toe up) and press
either the Up or Down Footswitch.
4. The Display now prompts you to calibrate the V-Switch sensitivity (VSwxxx), where XXX is the current
V-Switch threshold. Rock the Expression Pedal forward and press firmly on the toe once to turn the
V-Switch on (wah ON), and again to turn the V-Switch off
(wahOFF).
5. If the V-Switch is too sensitive, press the right Up Footswitch to raise the threshold (range is 0-200).
Keep testing the V-Switch sensitivity and adjust the threshold until it only engages when you want it to
(too sensitive a setting will lead to the V-Switch falsely triggering on or off when using the Expression
Pedal).
6. When the V-Switch sensitivity is set to your satisfaction, press both Up/Down Footswitches
simultaneously to exit.
NOTE: If the Display shows error, an error has occurred and steps 2 through 5 should be repeated.
