Calibrating Metropolix Outputs
You can calibrate all four of Metropolix' variable outputs (TRK 1 PITCH, TRK 2 PITCH, OUT A,
OUT B) using the same technique.
TIP: If you make a mistake at any point during the following calibration procedure, you can scroll to
the bottom of the Calibration menu, select Reload All, and press the encoder. This will reload the
current, previously saved values back into Metropolix. Once you enact a Save All, this is no longer
possible, since your edited values will overwrite the previous calibration.
To Calibrate Metropolix' Outputs:
1.
Patch the OUT A into a calibrated voltmeter with .001V accuracy.
2.
Enter Calibration Mode, as discussed earlier.
3.
Turn the encoder to highlight 'OUT A 0V: [number]', then press the encoder.
The [number] field is highlighted.
4.
Turn the encoder (either clockwise or counterclockwise) to adjust the internal trim [number] until
your voltmeter reads as close to 0.000V as possible, then press the encoder to lock in the offset.
5.
Turn the encoder to highlight 'OUT A 1V: [number]', then press the encoder.
The [number] field is highlighted.
Turn the encoder (either clockwise or counterclockwise) to adjust the internal trim [number] until
6.
your voltmeter reads as close to +1.000V as possible, then press the encoder to lock in the
offset.
7.
Patch OUT B into your voltmeter, turn the encoder to 'OUT B 0V: [number]' and repeat Step 4,
then turn the encoder to 'OUT B 1V: [number]' and repeat Step 6.
8.
Patch TRK 1 PITCH into your voltmeter, turn the encoder to 'Pitch 1 0V: [number]' and repeat
Step 4, then turn the encoder to 'Pitch 1 1V: [number]' and repeat Step 6.
9.
Patch TRK 2 PITCH into your voltmeter, turn the encoder to 'Pitch 2 0V: [number]' and repeat
Step 4, then turn the encoder to 'Pitch 2 1V: [number]' and repeat Step 6.
To Save the Calibration:
1.
Turn the encoder to select 'Save All', then press the encoder to save your calibration.
