Press the MENU button. The Menu screen appears on the television monitor (Figs. 2).

As you carry out the operation described below, view the television monitor connected to the PREVIEW OUT jack.

Press the [ ] or [ ] button to move the cursor to "Utility," then press the ENTER button.

Press the [ ] or [ ] button to select "Video Fader Calibrate A," then press the ENTER button.

Press the [ ] or [ ] button to select "Video Fader Calibrate B," then press the ENTER button.

Move the control for the cross fader all the way to B, then press the ENTER button.

Adjustment similar to that just described is also required whenever the video fader is replaced.

■

Adjusting the Stroke

You can adjust the cross fader to a stroke at any of four stages (10 mm, 23 mm, 35 mm, and 45 mm).

If the cross fader is installed on the V-4 unit, detach it before you carry out the operation described below.

Move the control for the cross fader to its central position.

Using a Phillips screwdriver, remove the stopper retainer screw (Fig. 1).

Move the stopper to any one of the four holes that you prefer (Fig. 2).The four stopper holes are stamped
"10," "23," "35," and "45." These indicate the stroke obtained when screwed to the respective hole. Use these
stamped indicators as a guide for positioning the stopper.

Secure the stopper in place using the stopper retainer screw you removed in step 2 (Fig. 3).

Overtightening the screw may damage the cross fader. Roland assumes no responsibility for any accident or product
damage arising from installation operations.

No Phillips screwdriver is included with this product.

Never remove any screw other than the one specified.

Switch off the power to the V-4.

Using a Phillips screwdriver, remove the screws at the four corners of the video fader (Fig. 1).

Turn the video fader upside-down and detach the cable connecting the V-4 to the video fader.

The cable is held in place by a hook on the video fader. Detach the cable from the hook (Fig. 2), then
disconnect the connector on the video fader (Fig. 2).

When reinstalling the video fader, orient the connector as shown in the figure and insert it. After attaching the connector,
secure the cable in place on the hook.

Portions of the connector for the video fader are sharp. When unplugging or inserting the connector, be careful not to get
your hands cut.

Orient the connector as shown in the figure and insert it into the cross fader (Fig. 4).

Never use excessive force to insert the connector. If it won't go in properly, pull it out and try again.

Attach the cross fader using the screws you removed in step 2 (Fig. 5).

Orient the cross fader by aligning the triangle printed on the cross fader with the triangle printed on the V-4 (Fig. 6).

After you have completed the installation procedure, check again to make sure the device is installed correctly.

When the installation is finished, carry out the procedure described in "Adjusting the V-4" below.

Overtightening the screws may damage the unit's case. Roland assumes no responsibility for any accident or product
damage arising from installation operations.

No Phillips screwdriver is included with this product.
