Aviom A-16R and A-16CS User Guide
Footswitch Jack
The A-16CS can use any standard dual-pedal footswitch to select
Presets in the A-16R. When using a dual pedal, the right-side pedal is
used to move forward through the Preset list. The left pedal is used to
move backward through the Preset list from the current selection.
For example, if you have just loaded Preset 7 (by pressing the RECALL
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 REMOTE/LOCAL
switch must be in the REMOTE 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.
Note: When selecting Presets with a footswitch, the
selections will wrap around and start over after you
reach the last numbered Preset.
For example, when moving forward through the
Preset list from Preset 14, after two presses of the
right footswitch you will be at Preset 16. One more
press of the same footswitch will select Preset 1, the
first Preset in the list. Additional presses of the right
footswitch continue selecting Preset 2, Preset 3, etc.
