4. പരിപാലനം

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your Behringer X-TOUCH.

4.1 വൃത്തിയാക്കൽ

Regularly wipe the surface of the unit with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, solvents, or waxes, as these can damage the finish and electronic components. For stubborn grime, a slightly damp cloth with mild soap can be used, followed by immediate drying.

4.2 Fader and Button Care

Keep the fader tracks free from dust and debris. While the faders are motorized and designed for durability, excessive force or obstruction can cause damage. Avoid spilling liquids near the faders or buttons. If any controls feel sticky or unresponsive, consult the troubleshooting section or a qualified service technician.

5. പ്രശ്‌നപരിഹാരം

If you encounter issues with your X-TOUCH, try the following common troubleshooting steps:

• ശക്തിയില്ല: Ensure the power cable is securely connected to both the unit and the power outlet. Check if the power switch is in the ON position.
• No DAW Recognition: Verify that the USB or Ethernet cable is properly connected. Check your computer's device manager (Windows) or System Information (macOS) to see if the X-TOUCH is recognized. Ensure your DAW's control surface settings are correctly configured for HUI or Mackie Control.
• ഫേഡറുകൾ നീങ്ങുന്നില്ല/പ്രതികരിക്കുന്നില്ല: Confirm that the X-TOUCH is in the correct mode for your DAW. Check for any physical obstructions on the fader tracks. If automation is enabled in your DAW, ensure it's not overriding manual control.
• ബട്ടണുകൾ പ്രതികരിക്കുന്നില്ല: Press the button firmly. If multiple buttons are unresponsive, try restarting the X-TOUCH and your DAW.
• ഇടയ്ക്കിടെയുള്ള കണക്റ്റിവിറ്റി: Try using a different USB or Ethernet cable. Ensure there are no other devices causing interference on the USB bus or network.
