The next condition to check is to see if the failure has caused the processing to cease. Using program
material, check to see if the processing bargraphs are operating. If they are, then it’s a good indication that
the basic DSP structure is sound and the system's host processor is working. At this point, it would be a
good idea to see if the loss of audio is confined to only one output port, e.g. a composite output, the discrete
left/right outputs or the AES/EBU output. Check the signal at each of these locations. If the signal is dead
at all three, then this points to a digital audio problem after the dynamic processing DSP chips. If one of the
output sections is not operating, then it can be localized to that specific section.
Note: The composite outputs and the discrete left/right outputs are operated from their own specialized
Digital to Analog converters. Therefore, it's possible for one type of output to fail without affecting the
other. Likewise, a failure in the AES/EBU driver section could result in the digital output being dead, while
the rest of the system is operational.
3. Unit has power, but no audio and no processing indications. Check to make certain that the Input
Source selected in the INPUT menu is correct for the input type being used. If so, then there may be some
form of problem within the DSP environment, the host microprocessor or a combination of both. We
recommend that you contact Omnia Customer Focus for immediate attention.
4. Unit has power, the audio is working, but both front panel displays show the rotating Omnia logo
and then stop. This indicates a communications error between the front panel and the master motherboard
CPU, or a failure of the motherboard to initialize either the DSP code or operating system. In the unlikely
event that your Omnia-6fm is out of service and in need of assistance from Omnia, please see the section
entitled Obtaining Service
for contact information.
