Setup Instructions

Shown with the TempoTreadle 1 Caddy and System Unit

STEP 1: CONNECT MAGNET CAPS TO LEVERS

Slide the magnet caps onto the ends of each lever as shown. Ensure that the cap is slid all the way down, touching the round metal plate. If the magnet cap is not tight, place one of the provided glue dots on the wood and slide the cap back in place.

Extra Velcro will be included. Place a strip on the back of the magnet if cap is too loose.

STEP 2: SLIP THE DISPLAY OVER THE TOP OF THE LOOM

Place the caddy connector over the top of the loom and then place TempoTreadle into the caddy.

STEP 3: ATTACH THE SENSOR ARRAY

Place the sensor array under the front of the loom as with the cable extending to the left. The small white marks on the array indicate the first and the last treadle. Line those marks under the magnets on the loom castle. The edge of the Velcro should be barely visible under the loom’s castle as shown in the picture. Route the Sensor array cable under the top of the loom through to the back. See photos at end.

**NOTE: The array pictured here is black, we have since switched to clear cases. **

STEP 5: CONNECT THE SYSTEM UNIT AND SENSOR ARRAY

Place the System Unit in the caddy.

Plug the small end of the USB data cable into the top of the System Unit; plug the USB end into a USB power source or the provided AC adapter. As with all Micro USB plugs, the plug is directional. The picture to the right shows the side that should be facing the front of the unit when you plug it in.

Connect the cable from the system unit to the connector on the sensor array. Press firmly to attach the cable from the System Unit to the Sensor Array, making sure the red stripe on the two cables is aligned.

STEP 6: RUN TUNE ARRAY AND PREPARE TO WEAVE

Power on the system unit.

Select System Settings | Tune Array to verify that all the levers work. Press levers and expect to hear a tone and see the lever number displayed. If all don’t initially work, adjust the position of the sensor array until they all detect properly. Excess ribbon cable may be bundled with a rubber band.

Your system unit will arrive with a micro-SD card already in the unit. A loom profile, !Voyageur, has been preloaded on the card. Once the unit is powered on, the loom profile will automatically load. You can run a quick test to see how TempoTreadle works by selecting Weave and following the short lift plan. You should hear the “ok” tone when you have the correct levers engaged; at that point you normally would throw the pick. Now you are ready to use TempoTreadle.
