Making Power Connections
Connect one end of the supplied AC power cable to a grounded AC outlet, and the
other to the VS-2480’s AC IN jack—use
only
the supplied AC cable. Connect all other
devices’ power cables as recommended in their documentation.
Powering Up
It’s important that you power up the VS-2480 and any equipment to which it’s attached
in the following order to prevent damage to your equipment and to make sure the
VS-2480 recognizes everything you’ve connected to it.
1. Turn on everything connected to the VS-2480 except your monitors or monitoring
system. This includes devices connected to the VS-2480 via analog connections or
digitally, your VGA monitor and any external SCSI devices.
2. Turn on the VS-2480 by pressing its rear-panel POWER switch to its On position. When
the Home display—shown here—appears, the VS-2480 power-up sequence is
complete.
This takes a few moments, as explained in the next section.
3. Turn on your monitor speakers or monitoring system.
What Happens During the VS-2480’s Power-Up
When you turn the VS-2480 on, it performs a few important tasks that help ensure its
successful operation. It:
• performs some diagnostic routines to make sure everything’s working properly.
• scans its SCSI bus to learn what SCSI devices are connected and available for use.
• sets up the available effects.
• re-loads the project that was loaded at power-down. (When you turn on the
VS-2480 for the first time, this is the “What You Don’t Know” demo.) As a project
loads, the faders move to their last-saved positions and the project’s settings are
restored.
In the following steps, allow each piece of equipment to finish its power-up sequence
before proceeding to the next step.
