Quick Start - Reference
AC Power connection
The FDS-355 has a universal voltage AC Power input. Connect the FDS-355 to
AC Power with the lead supplied. The unit will switch on automatically (there
is no separate on/off switch). The display will show the default screen, with
the current program (if selected), and overall system response curves.
Audio connections
Connect the inputs and outputs as desired. All inputs and outputs are
electronically balanced, with Pin 2 hot signal (+ve). Do not put any audio
through the unit at this time.
Program settings
If your FDS-355 has been already configured with a program, you only need to
use the RECALL mode to set the parameters to that program.
Press RECALL. Turn the parameter wheel to select the designated program
(which has a number and name) and press RECALL again. Programs marked
with diamonds are OEM programs and have been designed to match specific
sound systems.
Some units will be locked (
refer to section 17.0; System Security
) to a
specific program. In this case most controls will be disabled and the unit will
be ready for use.
Recalling a program from a PC Card
To load a file from a PC card, push the card into the slot on the front panel of
the FDS-355. Press RECALL. Push the DOWN key to highlight
'Int'
, and turn
the encoder to select
CPrg
(or
CAll
for a full PC Card recall). Push the UP key
to return to file selection, and turn the parameter wheel to select the file. Push
RECALL again to recall the file.
Setting up a system
To configure your FDS-355, the mode of the unit should be decided upon
before setting up.
Once the Config is set (In the Utilities menu), the crossover points, individual
band delays, any EQ, and limiter thresholds can be set up.
To enter the Utilities menu, press the UP key from the default screen.
Configuring the FDS-355
The FDS-355 has 2 modes from which the unit can be configured: Stereo 2-
Way with sub (Stereo), or Mono 5-way (MONO). To select the mode you wish
to use, enter the Utilities menu, and press the UP key until you reach the
Config screen. Turn the parameter wheel to select the option you wish to use.
NOTE: When the configuration is changed, the unit will prompt for
confirmation of the action. If the STORE key is pressed, then the mode will
change, and DEFAULT VALUES WILL BE RESTORED. It is advisable to do a
'Store' before changing modes if you have set up a program.
