Expression Pedal Calibration
The Expression Pedal on the Control X Foot Controller needs to be calibrated for use when first connected or after a
factory reset has been performed.This calibration procedure is automatically entered if the Control X is connected at
the time of the factory reset procedure. In the event the Pedal’s calibration fails,or if the Pedal does not function prop-
erly,it can be re-calibrated using the Pedal Calibration menu.The procedure for Calibrating the Expression Pedal is as
follows:
1.Press the AMP SAVE and STORE buttons simultaneously. Both buttons will light green indicating you are in the
Utilities.
2.Press the TAP-IT or EDIT buttons until the alpha-numeric display shows PDLCAL (Pedal Calibration).
3.Press the blinking STORE button once to enter the Pedal Calibration Menu.The alpha-numeric display reads TOE
DN (Toe Down).
4.Rock the Expression Pedal all the way forward to the toe down position and press the blinking number 2
Footswitch.The display changes to read TOE UP (toe up).

Footswitch.The display will show VSWTCH and allow you to adjust the V-Switch threshold.
6.Rock the Expression Pedal forward and apply the desired V-Switch pressure to the toe of the pedal.If further adjust-
ment to the threshold is required,use the DATA knob to select the desired threshold.
