Using an AC adapter will not retain theprograms in memory after the Poly-800 is turned off. If there is no lithiumcell installed, only the six “C” cells can keep the memory active.If there is no lithium cell, the steps to add one depend on which of the threeversions of KLM-596 board you have. Here is something from one of my old posts,with examples of different versions:
S/N011912 KLM-596-2 - had no solder pads and no battery.
S/N041368 KLM-596-7 - had solder pads but no battery. R1 and D1 arestill on the board.
S/N 073712KLM-596-8 - had solder pads and a battery.No R1 or D1 exist on the board.
You can search some of the old posts fordiscussions about how to add a lithium cell battery (one of mine was from Aug31, 2011) and you can read the file from hexafuzz in the Yahoo group Files/Poly-800/Servicingsection.

If you have any questions about theinstructions you find, just ask.

Here's amad idea,put new batteries in the battery holder and use a psu when not usingthe batteries which
will be most of the time,hence will retain programs. Simples

Hello!
The mk1 poly800 (and the reversed keys one) doesn't have a battery inside anddoesn't keep the memory on power down (except you have batteries inside but iam not 100% sure about that) ,,
You need to mod it and add a battery so it will be able to retain its patcheson power down..!To: korgpolyex@yahoogroups.com
