hi there
i own both sx 210 and sx 240 bought on ebay but i miss the manuals.
Could anyone help me or send me a copy ( i live in Belgium, Europe).
I will pay of course...
Did anyone modify the cardboard to use Lihium battery?
Is there any difference with the Polysix mod ?
many thanx

It's very hard to change the board to put a lithium battery, you must be a very good electronician.

I dont own a user manual unfortunatly, it would be very helpfull...

Not at all !

It is a very simple operation and I guess that it should be done the 
same way the mod fpr Polysix goes... But you'll have to consult an 
electronician. If I remember correctly all needed to be done is to 
remove a resistor and put a diode instead of it.

I personally didn't do that and placed a new NiCAD battery, far away 
from the PCBs. I intend to replace it every few years. I guess this 
particular machine is going to be needed to be serviced quite a lot 
at the near future. I already had to recover the computer board after 
memory leak and replace two filer chips.
