Instead of hard-coding these values into the strings, a "gc" (global channel) or "dv" (device number) byte can be
designated that references the global settings in the Utility section. When the PC 1600x™ sees a "gc" in the string,
it will transmit the Utility menu's ChOut setting. When it sees a "dv" in the string, it will transmit the DevNum
variable.
Additionally, the "gc" designation can be used with MIDI Channel messages. In this case, the "gc" will channelize
the preceding byte, as opposed to being sent as a separate byte. For display, the status and "gc" bytes are con-
nected by a hyphen to show that they are being combined into a single byte. The following example is how this
would be displayed:
The zero after the C will get replaced by the ChOut setting in the Utility menu.
LEARN MODE
If a system exclusive message is received while a fader string is being edited (the underline cursor must be
present), the PC 1600x will automatically replace the existing fader string with the system exclusive message
received.
SAVING YOUR EDITS
Use the following steps to save your edits:
1. Press the Edit button.
2. Use the data wheel or up/down buttons to scroll to the last option: Name/Save preset.
3. Press Enter.
4. To re-name, use the left/right buttons to select character positions and the up/down buttons to edit the
character. Note: Faders also can be used to select character positions.
5. Press Enter.
6. Choose the destination for the save with the up/down buttons or the data wheel.
7. Press Enter to save to the location displayed at the bottom of the display.
To return to the main page at any time, press Exit several times until the main page is reached. If changes were
made to the preset, the preset number will be replaced with "**". This is an indication that the preset in the edit
buffer has been modified but not saved. Press Edit to return to the Edit mode if the changes are to be saved.
Press up or down from the main page to leave this preset. This will cause any changes that were made to be
discarded.
Note: Edits which were discarded can be recovered from the main page if no other preset has been
edited (even after a power down). Increment the preset number above preset 49 and the preset
number is replaced by "**". Pressing Edit returns to the Edit mode with the edit buffer exactly as it was
last time the Edit mode was exited.
