Title: All lights illuminate on the frontpanel Post by: brian_ronn on December 04, 2019, 01:19:54 AM Hi All
My E1 has started to act up. When I turn on the sampler all lights illuminate on the frontpanel and they stay on. No access to the drive happens. According to the user manual page 4 this could be a failed floppy drive or interface. My floppydrive is disconnected as I use a SD HxC drive which has been working fine until now. I have tested with a second HxC and replaced the floppy ribbon cable to no avail. If the problem is the drive interface on the cpu board then which of the IC's should I look at and replace?: IC44 Disk control IC51 Disk & sustain IC52 Disk control buffer IC53 Disk & A/D IC54-55 Disk timing IC62 A/D, disk, mod select Misc. The above IC's are mentioned in the service manual page 24. Best regards A tired Brian :) Title: Re: All lights illuminate on the frontpanel Post by: brian_ronn on August 06, 2020, 12:01:54 AM I've had the E1 serviced at a pro shop. They replaced the PSU and had all the IC's reseated.
Now the E1 works flawlessly and better than when I bought her back in 2014 :-) Best regards Brian |
