    Those are not error codes. It's the display reading crap. Try the initializer ion... Hold the red button, then power up. It should come up in calibration mode.

 Hi    I don’t know the error codes but my advice is to check the power supply voltages carefully. I found that minor variations (2-3volts)  can cause weird things to happen in that synth.    Scott       From:oberheim@yahoogroups.com [mailto:oberheim@yahoogroups.com]

Anyone know what these error codes indicate?...Thank You
