Digidesign Control 24 Manuale Utente

Fader Test Pages

The Fader test mode allows you to test the oper-
ation of the touch sensing, moving faders on 
Control|24.

To access Fader Test modes:

1  

Press the flashing encoder switch below the la-

bel “Fadr.”

2  

Press the flashing encoder switch located be-

low the menu item of choice to enter the fader 
test mode desired.

3  

Press the flashing encoder switch below the 

scribble strip display that shows “Exit” to exit 
the menu and return one level up. You can also 
press the flashing UTILITY switch to exit the 
UTILITY mode entirely and revert to the previ-
ous Control|24 operating state. All fader test 
routines will time out after 3 minutes of opera-
tion in order to conserve fader life. 

Step Test Mode

Step test mode places the faders on Control|24 
in a test mode where the faders jump, lock-step, 
to fader positions which are determined by ad-
justing the scrub/shuttle wheel. When this 
mode is first engaged, the faders will jump to 
mid position (approximately 512 steps). 

When “Step” fader test mode is engaged:

• The encoder switch LED located below the 

scribble strip which shows “Step” will light 
solid indicating that this is the chosen test 
mode.

• All other display test menu items shown on 

the scribble strips as well as their associated 
flashing encoder switch LEDs, will remain vis-
ible in this test mode. 

• The scribble strip displays will toggle back and 

forth between the step values and the switch 
labels. This allows you to select another dis-
play test mode without the need to first “Exit” 
this mode.

• The fader position value will be shown in 

these scribble strips and will be updated in 
real-time as the faders “step.” Values will 
range from off (value of “0000”) to full-on 
(value of “1023”).

• Rotate the scrub/shuttle wheel to adjust the 

step level that the faders use. Turning the 
wheel to the left decreases the step level while 
rotating the wheel to the right increases the 
step distance.

• Press the flashing encoder switch located be-

low the scribble strip showing another test 
mode to simultaneously disengage the fader 
step test mode and enter the newly selected 
mode. The encoder switch LED for the new 
choice will light solid while the other choices 
flash.

• When finished, press EXIT.
