Note:
When the power is turned on, the signal conditioners are cali-
brated automatically. When the calibration finishes, a buzzer
sounds. (The buzzer consists of three pairs of beeps.) The time

The buzzer will sound three pairs of beeps.
2.
Turn on the power to the PC.
3.
Start "GX Navi".
Note:
While "GX Navi" is running, if the power to the GX-1 main
unit is turned off and an attempt is then made to perform some
operation with GX Navi, an error message is shown. If you
then turn on the power to the GX-1 main unit again, the PC will
be unable to recognize the GX-1. To enable the PC to recog-
nize the GX-1, restart GX Navi.
If startup time is unusually long
If the time between power-on and the buzzer sound is unusually
long, or if the buzzer sound is abnormal, the signal conditioners
may not be recognized. If the conditioners are not recognized,
