Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.” Pedal Board (Model SP8F) and Body Pack (Model (SP8BP6 and SP8BP8): These products incorporate transmitter module FCC ID: UY124 This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference and (2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. INSTRUCTION TO THE USER Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: —Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. —Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. —Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. —Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by FXConnectX could void the user's authority to operate the equipment. Copyright 2014 by FXConnectX LLC. All Rights Reserved. Page 3 Introduction The FXconnectX StagePro8 system has been designed to provide wirelessly controlled and transparent True-Bypass audio loop switching technology for pedal boards, guitar/audio racks, recording studios, or any application up to 200 feet away! “Freedom” from the board! Be anywhere on stage (or in the audience) and from your finger tips, guitars, or foot controllers you can now switch amp channels, mute your whole rig, set a tap tempo, and control your pedals connected to four programmable True-Bypass loops! This manual will guide you through the use of your new system. We thank you for your purchase! We are here for you and are available to answer any questions you may have. Please contact us by phone, email, or feel free to view the HELP videos on our web site. Operational Overview The StagePro8’s four true-bypass audio loops can be configured as desired. The loops have been designed to ensure true audio transparency. Each loop is arranged in series (Loop 1 to Loop 4). Each loop’s selection is determined by the settings on your Body Pack(s) or Floor Switch unit(s). Active loops and programmed patches are indicated by the LED’s displayed on the front panel of the main unit and Floor units. StagePro8 has a built-in Amp A/B switcher and can be configured for Normally Open or Normally Closed operation (to accommodate various types of channel switching needs). The system can also be programmed with “patches” containing different combinations of loops and external switching combinations (Eliminates the “tap” dance). Each loop can also be set to operate in Toggle mode (like a normal on/off pedal) or set to momentary mode (to tap a tempo or similar). Any time an unused loop is selected (no connections are made to these jacks), that loop will be in a default full True-Bypass mode and will be totally removed from the audio chain. Loops are “Half-Normalized” in order to accommodate many connection possibilities. In the event of a loss of power longer than 3 seconds, or whenever the power switch is switched off, the unit will default into full True-Bypass mode: Input will be directly routed to Output. Main Unit Front Panel  Antenna: The antenna can be removed for storage and repositioned as needed, but when in use it must be in the upright position (never sideways).  SER: Serial Jack. An optional Serial Fail-Safe cable can be connected from this jack to the Serial jack on any single Floor Unit. When a cable is used all wireless functionality is bypassed. Cables are available on our web site. Copyright 2014 by FXConnectX LLC. All Rights Reserved. Page 4  PWR: Power On/Off switch  LEARN: The Learn LED is illuminated when the L-SW (Learn Switch) is pressed and learn mode is active.  MUTE: The Mute LED is illuminated when the system Soft Mute is active. Soft Mute only affects output jack 2 (The second jack); jack 1 is not muted. This enables the non- muted output to still drive a signal chain or be used for tuning.  AB: The AB LED is illuminated when the AB switch is active.  RCV: The Receive LED illuminates when the system is receiving commands from a remote.  1, 2, 3, 4, TS1, TS2: These LED’s are illuminated whenever these loops or functions are active. Main Unit Rear Panel  GND:ISO (Isolated) This switch isolates audio ground from common chassis ground. Useful when troubleshooting system ground issues or performing where grounding is causing loud hum or noise. COM connects audio ground to common chassis ground.  AB: This switch selects Normally Open (NO) or Normally Closed (NC) Tip to Sleeve orientation of the AB jack. Most amps use a NO style co…
