5. Техникалык тейлөө

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your CME U4MIDI WC, follow these general maintenance guidelines:

  • Тазалоо: Түзмөктүн сыртын тазалоо үчүн жумшак, кургак чүпүрөктү колдонуңуз. Абразивдүү тазалоочу каражаттарды, эриткичтерди же күчтүү химиялык заттарды колдонуудан алыс болуңуз, анткени алар капталга зыян келтириши мүмкүн.
  • Сактагыч: When not in use, store the device in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and high humidity.
  • Колдонуу: Түзмөктү этияттык менен колдонуңуз. Аны түшүрүп албоодон же катуу соккуга дуушар кылбоо керек, анткени алар ички компоненттерге зыян келтириши мүмкүн.
  • Байланыштары: Periodically check all cable connections for wear and tear. Ensure cables are securely plugged in to prevent intermittent issues.

6. Кыйынчылыктарды

If you encounter issues with your U4MIDI WC, consider the following common troubleshooting steps:

  • No Power/Indicators Off:
    • Ensure the USB-C cable is securely connected to a powered USB port or a compatible 5V USB power adapter.
    • If using 9V DC power, verify the power adapter is correctly connected and providing the specified voltage and current (9V DC, 500mA minimum).
  • No MIDI Signal/Data Flow:
    • Check all MIDI cable connections. Ensure they are properly seated in the correct input/output ports.
    • Verify that your MIDI devices are sending/receiving MIDI data correctly.
    • Open the UxMIDI Tools software and check the MIDI Router settings. Ensure that inputs are correctly routed to desired outputs.
    • Check the MIDI Filter and Mapper settings in UxMIDI Tools. Incorrect settings here can block or alter MIDI messages. Try resetting filters/mappers to default if unsure.
    • Ensure the correct MIDI input/output is selected in your DAW or music application.
  • Device Not Recognized by Computer/Mobile Device:
    • Try connecting the U4MIDI WC to a different USB-C port or a different computer/device to rule out port or device-specific issues.
    • Компьютериңизди же мобилдик түзмөгүңүздү өчүрүп күйгүзүңүз.
    • Иштөө тутумуңуз жаңыртылганын текшериңиз.
  • Intermittent Connection/Jitter:
    • Ensure you are using high-quality USB and MIDI cables.
    • Түзмөктү күчтүү электромагниттик тоскоолдук булактарына жакын жайгаштырбаңыз.
