Epica DGX 16 and Epica DGX 32 Instruction Manual
Menus and Modes
The Function menu and its submenus access the modes and functions
used to control the system. The modes are Change, Virtual Matrix, Status,
Disconnect, Setup Options, Lock Panel, Global Preset, and Local Preset.
While in a mode, the same command can be repeated, without having to
return to the Function menu to reselect the mode, e.g., executing more
than one local preset.
Use the Control Dial and Select Key to navigate the Function menu, and
submenus. The Function menu and the submenus are loop menus, which
means that each menu returns to its first item after you scroll past its last
item.
Note: A clear label with white lettering that shows the entire LCD
Function menu (as shown to the right) is included in the Control Panel
Label Kit shipped with the system. Dust surface of panel near the LCD
with a dry cloth (if necessary, use a non-abrasive cleaner), peel the
backing off of the label, and firmly press the label on panel.
The Function menu (see right) and its submenus access the following modes and functions:
Change
Selecting Change places the system in Change Mode. The Control Panel must be in Change Mode to
execute switches. While in Change Mode, select the Input and Output(s) Keys followed by the Take Key
to execute switches (see page 61).
Virtual Matrix
Selecting the Virtual Matrix Mode accesses the virtual matrices designated for the system in the
configuration file (VM 0, VM 1, and any custom virtual matrices). The Virtual Matrix Mode can be
selected to change the virtual matrix currently used to execute operations (see page 62).
Status
Selecting Status places the system in Status Mode. Status Mode is used to confirm signal routing or
routing to multiple outputs without risk of accidentally executing a switch (see page 64).
Disconnect
Selecting Disconnect places the system in Disconnect Mode. While in Disconnect Mode, select the Input
or Output Key(s) followed by the Take Key to disconnect switches (see page 63). While in Disconnect
Mode, the Control Panel does not indicate the current routing of selected inputs or outputs.
Setup Options
Selecting Setup Options (see page 73) accesses the Setup Options submenu to check the software
version, change the default virtual matrix, reload the configuration file (when directed to do so by
technical support), and change the Control Panel password.
Lock Panel
Selecting Lock Panel places the Control Panel in Lock Mode at which time the password is entered to
lock the panel. Locking the panel limits access which can prevent accidental switches (see page 72).
Adjust Audio
This menu item will not display unless the Epica DGX 16 or 32 is linked to an enclosure that supports
audio functions. Selecting Adjust Audio accesses the Adjust Audio submenu. From this menu, you can
place the panel in Output Volume Mode, Mute/Unmute Mode, or Input Gain Mode (see page 68).
Global Preset
Selecting Global Preset accesses the Global Preset submenu to execute global presets or define global
presets (see page 65).
