What you see will differ slightly, but basically lines above tell you the following:
10.1 Version
This is the panel firmware version number. See the section on updating the firmware for
more information on this.
10.2 USB state
This is the current status of the USB connection. This will change and update rapidly
when the panel is first plugged in but it should finish by saying configured. If it
doesn’t say this after a few seconds then remove the USB connection and plug it back
in again.
If you move any of the controls or press any of the buttons the appropriate bottom line
of the display will change to show you the status of the control or button which has been
changed. The following describes what you should see for each control or button:
10.3 Knobs and dials
If you move a knob, dial or a trackerball the bottom line of the right display will show
something similar to this:
Encoder moved: 11 4
The first number is the ID number for that control, in this case 11. The second number is
the amount it’s moved by, in this case 4. The number gets bigger the faster you turn the
control. This should be positive when the knob is turned clockwise and negative if
turned anti-clockwise. If the number is always -1 or 1, or doesn’t change then the knob
or dial is faulty.
10.4 Buttons
If you press a button the bottom line of the middle display will show something similar to
this:
Key pressed: 6
In this case button number 6 has been pressed. If this doesn’t happen then the button is
faulty.
Note: in test mode the buttons are scanned slowly so pressing a button too quickly and
releasing it may mean that the press is missed. So be sure to press each button slowly.
Under normal working conditions this will not be an issue.
10.5 Trackerballs
Just like the knobs and dials, moving the trackerball will cause the bottom line of the
right display to show something similar to this:
Encoder: 15 3
The first number is the ID number for that control, in this case 15. The second number is
the amount it’s moved by, in this case 3. The number gets bigger the faster you turn the

control. This should be positive when the ball is moved to the right or up. It will be
negative if the ball is moved to the left or down. If it does not change then the ball is
faulty.
Note: due to the way the software scans the movements of the balls, it will be hard to
see only changes in the left / right direction. The up / down movements are always
displayed in preference by the test mode, and as it’s difficult to move the ball in just the
left / right direction with out moving it up / down, you’ll always see mostly up / down
changes.
11. Trouble-shooting
11.1 A button doesn’t work
Go into test mode and follow the button test procedure. If the button doesn’t work in the
test mode then the button is broken. In this case please contact Tangent Wave or your
reseller.
If the button works in the test mode then it may be a problem with the software you are
using the panel with. Contact your software vendor.
11.2 A knob doesn’t seem to work
Go into test mode and follow the knob test procedure. If the knob doesn’t work in the
test mode then the knob is broken. In this case please contact Tangent Wave or your
reseller.
If the knob works in the test mode then it may be a problem with the software you are
using the panel with. Contact your software vendor.
Note: if the knob is turned to quickly then it is possible that the Wave will not be able to
keep up with the movement. Try to avoid turning the knob too quickly.
11.3 A trackerball doesn’t seem to work
Go into test mode and follow the trackerball test procedure. If the trackerball doesn’t
work in the test mode then the trackerball is broken. In this case please contact Tangent
Wave or your reseller.
If the trackerball works in the test mode then it may be a problem with the software you
are using the panel with. Contact your software vendor.
Note: from time to you will need to clean the trackerballs. See Care of your panel -
Cleaning the balls. If there is a build up of dust inside the panel it may affect the optical
sensor used to track the balls movements.
Note: if the ball is moved to quickly then the optical sensor will not be able to track it.
This will produce erratic behaviour in the output from the ball. Try to keep movements of
the ball smooth and avoid rapid changes of direction or spinning the ball.

11.4 My software isn’t communicating with the panel
Generally problems with communication are related to setting up your software to talk to
the panel. Refer to your software vendors instructions for doing this.
Make sure the USB cable is connected properly. Also make sure the USB port on your
computer can supply the 500mA the panel requires. Some laptops do not allow this.
If after doing the above, and taking any relevant action, you’re still having trouble, then
contact Tangent Wave or your reseller.
12. Care of your panel
Your Wave panel should not be cleaned with harsh abrasives or chemical cleaning
products. If they become dirty wipe them with a soft damp cloth.
Cleaning the balls
From time to time you may need to clean the balls and the trackerball unit that holds
them. To do this you need to remove the clip on cover over the ball and then remove
the ball. See Getting started - Fitting the balls in to the trackerballs. Clean the ball with a
soft damp cloth. To clean inside the trackerball unit use a damp cotton bud, paying
close attention to the three metal balls the ball sits on, and the lens which houses the
optical sensor.
13. Firmware updates
The firmware in your Wave panel was the most up to date version when your panel was
manufactured. It is possible however that a newer version may be available from our
website www.tangentwave.co.uk. Check there under the support tab to see if a newer
version is available. Also be sure to read the instructions and release notes with the
version.
