This appendix contains routine service information for the PRO Series Control Centre.
Routine maintenance
To help keep your PRO Series Control Centre unit in good working order and to make
sure it gives you optimum performance, we recommend that you carry out the following
about once every month.
Clean the control centre, as detailed in “Cleaning the control centre” (below).
Check controls for freedom of operation. As the controls are ‘self-cleaning’, this
operation will help to prevent them from sticking.
Check the functionality of all controls, that is, control knobs, faders, pushbuttons,
LEDs etc.
Check the functionality of equipment.
Cleaning the control centre
Switch off the control centre and electrically isolate it from the mains before cleaning.
Clean the control centre using a dry, lint-free cloth. Do not use harsh abrasives or
solvents. When cleaning the equipment, take great care not to damage faders,
pushbuttons etc.
Cleaning a GUI screen
Switch off the control centre and electrically isolate it from the mains before cleaning.
Carefully wipe the surface of the GUI screen with a soft, lint-free cloth or screen wipe
specially designed for the purpose. When cleaning the GUI screen, observe the
following precautions:
Avoid putting pressure on the screen.
Don’t use harsh abrasives, for example, paper towels.
Don’t apply liquids directly to the screen.
Don’t use ammonia-based cleaners and solvents, such as acetone.
If you are in doubt or have any queries about cleaning the GUI screens, contact Midas
Technical Support.

on the environment during their lifetimes and when they become waste.
