METER POSITION
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
TIME DISPLAY determines the time shown by the MB-24's time counter. It can show:
METER SCALE
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

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

VGA

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