Hi,
I once fried a cmos (analog) demultiplexer (1 to 8 switch) on Juno-106, which caused one vcf to function erratically. I replaced the vcf hybrid at first :P Then I knew to look for the problem up the control signal path.
The question is how do you identity the problem. Well, Juno has service mode, that provides fixed control voltages. But you can also create a patch that opens the filter (high cutoff). Then measure the vcf OUTPUT pin voltage from the switch circuit. Do the same for vcf closed or any vcf position if possible.
But if the circuit (sorry I'm currently too busy to see it myself) is a demux, measuring the input is not possible without special service mode or oscilloscope, because it has many control voltages alternating rapidly.
But, the circuit diagram should tell if the switch is the most likely damaged part.
Hope this helps...

thanks. I checked the service manual and schematics in the files section.
I think there's no signal input at VCF (IC1) pin 20 and 21.
the manual said I should check the analog switch circuit no. 28.
but I don't know what I should check to find the problem.
Can someone advice me what to do ? thanks

This helps us to keep redundant information from showing up everywhere and also allows us to constantly improve the format and structure of the documentation. We talk about the HAWK-800 quite a bit but we also discuss and help owners of the original Poly-800 models. So don't be shy if you haven't got the HAWK-800.Yahoo! Groups Links
