How do you set the settings for the cannon vixen haf530 for externalaudio

try tradebits.com the have books you download cheaper than bying a book

Before you assume the set has a audio problem here are some other possible causes to at least explore:

Speakers in the set (menu) are switched off.

Volume and set and or box turned way down or muted.

Internal/external speaker setting set to external

Audio works with a DVD etc connected to rear a/v jacks

Set suffered a power outage=unplug set and boxes and wait--plug both back and see if fixed or not.

Set does display on screen audio level or not--same for a box if used.

Check all audio settings in set and box carefully


If all these fail do you hear a hum or very faint audio from the speakers?

Why would you post a FOR SALE ad on Fixya? and then give us absolutely NO INFORMATION on what model of Vixen you own???

There are only two types of dovetail bars and saddles. A "Vixen style" and a "Losmandy style". One can be mistaken for the other. You probably have a Vixen style. tighten both knobs and you should be OK. Many dovetail bars have a screw hole in the end to place a bolt as a safety device if the bar should slip on the saddle -- the bolt would catch it and prevent the scope from falling off.
