For example, if you have just loaded Preset 7 (by pressing the Re c a l l button
followed by the number 7 button), pressing the right pedal once will move
to Preset 8. Pressing the left pedal will move down one, returning you to
Preset 7. Another press of the left pedal loads Preset 6, and so on. Changes
are reflected on the A‑16CS and its connected A‑16R host.
As with other operations involving the A‑16CS, the Re m o t e /lo c a l switch must
be in the Re m o t e position in order for the footswitch to be functional. When a
Preset is selected via the footswitch, the corresponding numbered button’s
LED on the front panel of the A‑16R will flash to indicate that the Preset has
been loaded.
The Footswitch jack uses a TRS connection, designed for dual foot pedals.
However, you can substitute a single footswitch (one that has only a tip‑
sleeve connection) if necessary. The Presets will move up only, and will wrap
around from Preset 16 to Preset 1 at the end of the Preset list as described
previously.
The footswitch can be either a normally open or normally closed type. The
pedal is scanned by the system software to determine which type it is, and
to determine what the “up” state of the switch is. The foot pedal should be
connected when the system is powered up. If you change pedals while the
system is in use, you may need to power cycle the unit if the type of pedal is
different.
