Re: [Fairlight-CMI] Re: Alpha Keyboard needed

Hi mike,

Not sure if there is a fuse to the power for the alpha keyboard, you might
try with a breakout connector and a voltage meter. I do not have the
manuals handy, so I cannot verify the fuse hypothesis for you right now.
You may also check the cabling for a broken wire.

I would find a dead keyboard after succesful use unusual, unless there is
a short or cable broken.

Regards,
Harald.

Re: Alpha Keyboard needed

HI Harald,

I have checked the power for the alpha keyboard and it is there. So it
seems that there is something defective inside, something with the
data transfer. Maybe a short circuit or some capacitors loosing their
capacity. 

But anyway, thank you for your help, it seems that there will be
another opportunity how this guy will proceed now with the unit. 

All the best,

Mike
