Radiation Exposure Statement
The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are associated with using low power wireless devices. There is no proof, however, that these low power wireless devices are absolutely safe. Low power Wireless devices emit low levels of radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while being used. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue), exposure of low-level RF that does not produce heating effects causes no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low-level RF exposures have not found any biological effects. Some studies have suggested that some biological effects might occur, but such findings have not been confirmed by additional research. This device has been tested and found to comply with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines in Supplement C to OET65.
Users in Canada
This device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.

Les connaissances scientifiques dont nous disposons n’ont mis en évidence aucun problème de santé associé à l’usage des appareils sans fil à faible puissance. Nous ne sommes cependant pas en mesure de prouver que ces appareils sans fil à faible puissance sont entièrement sans danger. Les appareils sans fil à faible puissance émettent une énergie radioélectrique (RF) très faible dans le spectre des micro-ondes lorsqu’ils sont utilisés. Alors qu’une dose élevée de RF peut avoir des effets sur la santé (en chauffant les tissus), l’exposition à de faibles RF qui ne produisent pas de chaleur n’a pas de mauvais effets connus sur la santé. De nombreuses études ont été menées sur les expositions aux RF faibles et n’ont découvert aucun effet biologique. Certaines études ont suggéré qu’il pouvait y avoir certains effets biologiques, mais ces résultats n’ont pas été confirmés par des recherches supplémentaires. Cet appareil a été testé et jugé conforme aux limites d’exposition aux rayonnements énoncées pour un environnement non contrôlé et respecte les règles d’exposition aux fréquences radioélectriques (FR) RSS-102 de l’IC.

This parameter reduce the volume of the tonewheel. When you set the "Soft" value the volume of the tonewheel became slightly softer in volume and equalization.
Parameter Setting
Volume Normal, Soft
Leakage
In the vintage electro-mechanical organs, sometimes the signal from adjacent tonewheels causes pickups to overhear tonewheels other than their own. This noise, originally considered to be a defect, grew to be an integral part of the electro-mechanical organ sound. Use this parameter to modify the amount of leakage.
Parameter Setting
Leakage 0 ~ 127
Hum noise
The sound of the organ is produced by an electro-magnetic pick-up. So some hum is normal and unavoidable in an electro mechanical organ. If you think you suffer from excessive hum, you can modify the level.

As a result of improvements made to the Mean Tone and Just temperaments, this tuning system is relatively tolerant towards transposition and can be used to play in all keys.
User 1, User 2, User 3: These
settings refer to the tuning systems programmed by yourself (or someone else).
Some Information About the Master Tune
The instruments are generally tuned to an A 440 pitch standard that was adopted during the early 1900s in response to widely varying standards. Previously the pitch standards had gradually risen from about A 415 during the late 1700s and early 1800s to A 435 during the late 1800s. Though A 440 is generally the standard, some orchestras, particularly in Europe, use a higher pitch standard, such as A 444.
⇪ TEMPERAMENT
NOTE
This function doesn't work when a TW1,TW2, FARF or VX type organ is selected.
The modern instruments are tuning in Equal Stretch temperament, in which every pair of adjacent pitches is separated by the same interval.
There are other scale used in different music style. Modern musical scale in western culture are different in one other way from older classic music. At the time of Bach the scales were based on the note A being about 415 Hz. In the Handel's time the frequency A was 422.5 Hz and today it is 440.0 Hz.

MIDI Sets are memories for MIDI settings. The COMBO J7 provides five MIDI Set memories.
The first MIDI Set, called "Dexibell", is read-only and allows you to restore the MIDI factory setting.
The second MIDI Set called "Pedalboard", it is read-only. It's a quick way to configure the MIDI channels using an external Pedalboard. The keyboard pedal part is set Local Off. In other words, the internal connection between the keyboard part and the tone generator is interrupted.
