Oggetto: Re: FCB1010 EXPRESSION PEDAL PROBLEM

This procedure may need to be repeated periodically as the FCB ages so it's handy to keep around.  Also, even after calibration it's not uncommon for pedals to not quite reach "0" in normal operation.  If you find this to be the case, stick a pencil under the heel side of the pedal while calibrating.  This will give you a buffer at the bottom of the pedal's travel and insure that the minimum value is reached easily.

Calibrating the expression pedals:

Many units ship with the exprssion pedals not correctly calibrated. This requires that you perform a manual calibration before the pedals will work correctly. The following procedure was provided by Behringer:
    1.    Keep footswitches 1 and 3 pressed while switching on the unit (This bit you can't do standing up!). Release the switches when the display blanks. The LEDs on the footswitches, the ones on the display and each segment of the two numeric displays will turn on and off in sequence.
    2.    Wait until all footswitch LEDs are on. Depress all footswitches one at a time, including UP and DOWN, until all LEDs are off.
    3.    Wait until relay switch test is finished. (There will be a couple of mechanical clicks, and the display will end up reading "F1" (at least, it did on mine)). [Also, if you have connected a MIDI cable between the MIDI in and out, the display will show "A1" before this, meaning the midi ports work correctly.]
    4.    Press DOWN once.
    5.    Adjust the left expression pedal (A) to the lowest value (heel down). Once adjusted press UP.
    6.    Adjust the left expression pedal (A) to the highest value (toe down). Once adjusted press UP.
    7.    Adjust the right expression pedal (B) to the lowest value (heel down). Once adjusted press UP.
    8.    Adjust the right expression pedal (B) to the highest value (toe down). Once adjusted press UP.
    9.    Select a patch which has both pedals set to their full range, and check the expression pedals now send 0-127 (0x00-0x7F)

Hi all
I have a problem with the pedals of my FCB1010.
I correctly programming the MIN value = 0 but when the pedal is up completely the FCB1010 trasmits a value about = 30
 
How can i do to calibrate the pedal?
