Re: [k5synth] upgrade ?'s

2004-05-28 by Antoine Deschênes

To reset it, you have to unsolder the lithium battery, pull the 
unsoldered side so it doesn't touch the connection, reinsert in the 
holse and resolder(The only problem is that you need to remove the 
board, a painful task if you're not removing K5's boards often).
