Re: [Simmons Drums] SDS9 start up problems

Sounds like the "6" indicates a malfunction. Have you checked a manual? 
Otherwise, the first thing to do is to see if the PSU is delivering what 
it's promising...
The battery you changed is "just" for memory.

Subject: [Simmons Drums] SDS9 start up problems


Hi all, my first post to this user group, I have an SDS9 module which
has been with me since new but only recently brought out of retirement
after about 10 years of being locked away in a cardboard box. The
problem I have is that at power on the unit flashes once (all leds and
displays) and then the display flashes a single number 6 and then seems
to shut down with nothing displaying and no leds luminated.
I have replace the onboard 3.6 V battery but still the same, any ideas?
Thanks for any help,
Regards,
Trevor
