HX3.6 First Aid (english)

First Aid

You have installed the new board and there is no sound or some functions are faulty? Check the following settings with the HX3 Manager:

• Is a scan board connected? Operation without scan board is only possible with HX3 Expander or MIDI scan driver installed.
• In normal operation, the blue LED on the HX3 mainboard flashes about once per second, as well as when sending MIDI data. If it is lit continuously, an analog control input is probably open and "floating", which is why MIDI data is being sent all the time. In this case, connect the HX3 Manager with "Disable Analog Inputs on Connect" checked.
• If the blue LED flickers three times per second for a short time and is on otherwise, HX3.6 is in bootloader mode, because this was requested (encoder pressed during power-on) or FPGA Sound Engine or firmware are corrupted. A connection with the editor is then not possible.
• Is valid board information displayed in the HX3 Updater (version and serial numbers, min. activation Organ Licence OK)?
• Does the displayed scan driver match your scan board? If not, install matching Scan Driver.
• Are the manual enables in MIDI Setup #1373 set to 7?
• Are the volume pots set to plausible values?
• Are the System Inits correctly set in the HX3 Editor? Typical for an organ with 2 drawbar sets per manual is the following configuration:

1496 = 0     / (not used)
1497 = 0     / Vibrato Knob Mode
1498 = 23    / CommonPreset Save/Restore Mask
1499 = 0     / (RFU)
1500 = 0     / (RFU)
1501 = 23    / Various Configurations 1
1502 = 5     / Various Configurations 2
1503 = 2     / ADC Configuration
1504 = 0     / 1st DB Set Voice Number (enabled when 0..15)
1505 = 1     / 2nd DB Set Voice Number (enabled when 1..15)
1506 = 0     / Pedal Drawbar Configuration
1507 = 100   / ADC Scaling
1508 = 4     / ADC Hysteresis
1509 = 3     / HX3 Device Type

• When moving the (in case of 2 DB sets of the active) drawbars, the corresponding values of the Upper DB, Lower DB etc. must change. If not: Are the analog inputs activated (System Inits #1503) and correctly assigned (Analog Remap)? If necessary, check the raw values of the analog inputs in the editor tab "Input Monitor".

• Are buttons and switches assigned correctly in Switch Remap? Here is an example for the default assignment with 4 preset buttons on Panel16:

5133 = 1     / Input 33 (onboard Pin PL25-2) Function
5134 = 2     / Input 34 (onboard Pin PL25-3) Function
5135 = 3     / Input 35 (onboard Pin PL25-4) Function
5136 = 4     / Input 36 (onboard Pin PL25-5) Function
5137 = 5     / Input 37 (onboard Pin PL25-6) Function
