The Poly6 requires 10 mins warm up time before attempting to calibrate it so this should answer your question. I find that most P6's I've used have a few...
looks to me like you still have broken traces on P11 and D03 lines. S check with continuity meter 2 networks (part designator and pin number): IC31-3 IC26-14 ...
I'm not familiar with the resistor value notation used here. What are 4k7 and 1k2? 4.7k? 47k? ... mysterious ... circuit. ... time ... ask ... broken ... ...
That is the most common notation. Some countries use a . some use a , but it all makes sense when you replace both with the value. 4k7 is 4.7k or... 4,7k...
Hi Roman, Checked all these traces and everything is fine. The only trace I have had to fix so far was on the little trace coming down off pin 12 on IC32. IC32...
If IC32 is broken, you would have problems with storing and recalling patches. But if you want to try, you can get replacement from me - generic part on small...
Hello all, i hjave just fitted my polysix witch i bought for 300SEK or 30 Euro with a new battery and i'm planning to change the opto as well to get the...
After reading through some of all the messages posted here, I've realized that my problem might not be the opto-converter. PC-1. I might replace it anyway, If...
Hi Roman, Yes, i'm having problems storing and recalling patches - the programmer doesn't work at all. Good timing that you're on holiday as I've just moved so...
Hi folks, you might remember me and my battery leakage issue. Well, we still haven't found the cause of the patches not being written to memory. TC5514 seems...
Hello, I recently aquired a polysix. The machine had a few keys which weren't working properly, and despite my best efforts of cleaning out those rubber pads,...
I suggest that you do replace PC-1 as for the tuning problems. With a well functioning P6 there should be no problem getting it in correct scale as long as you...
... That brings me to my previous question, how is the PC1 replacement to be connected??? Please pretend I'm a moron... (not to far) If i remember correctly...
Anyone out there know which type of battery can be used with a Polysix & where to obtain one?? Thanks! www.myspace.com/jazewadeaxiom www.jazewade.com...
Basically unless someone has already done the battery upgrade you've got a decent project in front of you. The battery originally used was a poor design and...
After many years faithful service, my polysix seems to have developed a tuning problem :-( Usually when I first switch it on, and initially hit the keys, the ...
Check the Files section as for how to replace the optocoupler. Do not touch ANY of the trimpots, as once you replace the bad part it should stay in its normal...
Thanks very much for the advice - since that only involves replaceing two components on the boards, even my wretched soldering skills oughta be able to handle...
Let us know if it helps... Had the same exact problem on my Trident and it indeed was the expo coverter. Thanks ;) ... part it ... the ... that's ... the ... ...
Hey everybody. I just got a ploysix and need help figuring out some problems. First, the battery has been replaced and the board cleaned so that is not an...
Hello, I am hoping that someone can explain to me how to properly remove the wire connectors from the boards inside the polysix. They are apparently glued...
... Make use of a good knife, like a box cutter or scalpel. And then carefully cut the glue. At least this worked for other devices I was digging around in. My...
Well, one obvious thing you might have overlooked -- removing the battery wipes the program memory; if you don't program in (or reload) patches, you'll get...
Hello, The polysix was set to manual mode. I'm going to take another shot putting it all back together again later today. Hopefully it was just a loose...
OK, so I put the board back in again, and made sure that all the connections were secure. Everything seems to be in the proper place, but I still can't get any...
Have you tried creating a new sound? From your response to the previous suggestion I'm not sure you understood what they were saying. When you remove the...
