To the right, CPU Utilization (CPU%) is shown on its own meter. The total CPU usage should not exceed
about 90%. For more on this topic, see “Preset CPU Limits” on page 29.
UTILITY: RESET PAGE
The RESET page provides a single function which sets all SYSTEM parameters (GLOBAL, I/O) back to their
factory default values. RESET SYSTEM PARAMETERS is one of the rst steps of troubleshooting. It never
deletes or modies your presets.
UTILITY: FIRMWARE PAGE
The FIRMWARE page indicates what rmware version the FX8 is running. Over time, you’ll likely upgrade the
rmware of your FX8 to add new features and maybe even bug xes. This is done using our free companion
software, Fractal-Bot, which provides step-by-step instructions.
