13.7 Help and Hints
Problem : A Personality File that is on the disk is not displayed in the Fixture
list within the patch menu.
Solution : Run INDEX.EXE on a PC, manually edit the index file this creates,
or put the personality file on a separate disk.
Problem : While loading new System Software the flash Memory
programming stops.
Solution 1 : Press the RESET button on the back of the desk for the Pearl,
or the front of the desk under the arm rest next to the mains switch for the
Sapphire, then try again.
Solution 2 : If this does not work, if Option 3 [ERASE ALL SEGMENTS] is
presented, Erase again but do this three times. We have occasionally found
that this type of Memory does not erase properly the first time. Then try
reprogramming.
Problem : Desk crashes immediately on running new System Software, or
some Channels are configured as reduction Channels, or on pressing some
buttons, desk reports a BUS ERROR.
Solution 1 : You have not done a WIPEALL after leaving AVOS.
Turn the Key to System and do a WIPEALL. See Section 1.6.1 To do a
WIPEALL.
Solution 2 : Alternatively fit the WIPEALL link on the MAP board for the
Sapphire, or near the 68340 processor for the Pearl and then power up the
desk. Remove the link (or every time you turn on the desk it will do a
WIPEALL!). See Section 1.6.1 To do a WIPEALL.
Problem : After fitting a WIPEALL link, you get PROGRAM CANNOT BE
FOUND message.
Solution : You must reload System Software. See Section 13.5.3 Changing
your System Software. You can download the latest System Software from
the Avolites BBS system on the number given on the front of the manual, or
reload your old System Software from a disk.
Problem : After fitting a Wipeall link, the Pearl does not power up correctly.
Solution : You can force it to power up in the AVOS2 menu by fitting the
AVOS link as follows :
• Switch off the desk and unplug it. (it is probably still open).
• Locate the links near the chip marked SASHA.
