Rhodes Chroma Polaris

I finally have been working on making link patches on my
Polaris, but I cant get the new links to STORE. I have some old
links in bank 'K' from the factory or previous owner. I can erase
them . I can create new upper/lower/unison links but when i try to
store them it doesnt take.Ive been reading the manual and cant
believe im missing the procedure.
i can apparently do link edits , but they also dont STORE. The
Lower function- 'store link' LED flashes and goes out when i punch
in the new link location, but it wont take.
Now a year ago i had an allegedly 'pro' service place replace
the non-working 'link unison' LED...{the unison functioned, but with
no light-- i had bought the polaris that way from the previous
owner}..Could this be related to my problem ? at that time i didnt
test the link memory, because i was unfamiliar with my new toy and
wasnt doing links. Now i think some connection is missing , any ideas
out thete as to what connection this might be? some other
troubleshooting tests, or am I just messing up the Store Link
procedure?

1. make link... 2. push 'lower function' 3.push 'store link'
(led flashes) 4. push 'store link' again-for same bank location
(or send to new bank location) 5.Flashing 'store link' LED stops

Are you just wanting to create a 'linked patch'?

If so, then the process is easier than you're attempting.

Simply create the patch. Use the link upper/lower/unison to get the
sound you want.

For instance, if you'd like to have patch A1 on the lower part of the
keyboard and B2 on the upper part of the keyboard:

Select A1
Press "Link Upper" (led blinks)
Press B2 (Link Upper LED blinking stops, and stays on).

Now, if you play - you should hear A1 on the lower keys and B2 on the
upper keys.

To save this setup, simply select "Upper Function", "Store Program."

Now, whenever you recall that patch, it will 'remember' that the link
program is "B2".

(The 'store link' command is to used separately store just the link
program).

Glad to hear it worked out OK.
