I would start by checking that all of the cables that go from the tuning board and the joystick board are all plugged in and working correctly.

I would also check the power supply rails (both +5V and -5V).

Then I would check that the ground is OK on those boards too.

Hello Poly fans, me again, trying to revive my post. Any suggestionfrom all you gurus regarding the problem exhibited by my Poly? I hopeit is not such a strange or difficult condition to fix...

Please let me know if the video is clear enough or if more informationis needed.

Thanks very much,

Hi group, it's been a while,

I have a problem with my Poly. After not using for a couple of monthsor so, I found out it developed a very weird tune-pitch bend problem.In a nutshell, tune slider seems not to be able to fine tune the Polybut rather it covers almost a whole octave (the default full pitch bendrange for the Poly, as if holding down a note with joystick fully tothe left and then moving it all the way to the right).

I am troubled since I do have the intention to go install the Hawkmods, but certainly not before having fixed this.

I posted a video in You Tube depicting the problem: http://www.youtube. com/watch? v=JSOtu4YxUCs.

Any and all help to bring my Poly back to normality will be greatlyappreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Dave
