Stagehand Apprentice 2 Parameters

Parameters - the reckoning

There are a lot of parameters - just 1 mis-set parameter can cause countless hours of troubleshooting chaos.

The Stagehand Apprentice 2 includes a super cool new feature to restore parameters. With Spikemark 5 you can now load entire parameter sets directly from the drive configuration window!

In case you are interested to know what parameters do what on the E800 VFD, take a look at the list below for the stock parameters. The machine specific parameters are at the bottom of the page.
