Wow Cool. Now I can print proper red strips!
Scudie – You open the software (java) file in WINRAR and then edit one of the existing png files. I had to download WINRAR and think it’s probably only good for a trial period but it works great.
You might ask in this FB group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/Jukebox.Wallbox.Consolette.Convert.2mp3/
What I’ve done with my Wallbox2mp3 adapter is to put a few greatest hits albums with lots of songs. They won’t play in random order of course but I have some with 5 hours of music.
Do you know what voltage they are getting now with the resistors in place? Let us know how they hold up. I tried some leds in my 3w1. Didn’t like the greenish color for most of them but left one in the “selection” location. It lasted about a week…
The album selection light on the far right is only suppose to be on when there are enough credits (enough money deposited) for an album side to be selected. When you make a selection, the credits are reduced and the light is supposed to go off. If you add enough credits back it should come back on.
The single selection light in the middle works the same way only it requires fewer credits. It should go off eventually if you make enough selections.
If either of them don’t come when there are enough credits (and the bulbs are good), I would try cleaning all contacts, particularly those in the pricing unit.
If you just want the lights to stay on all the time you can ground them as Scudie suggests.
FWIW, the terminal board by the left speaker is where selections can be designated as singles or albums. I did a test on mine and even if they’re all set for singles the album pricing light works the same.
Cool. Interesting that the relay switch caused the same problem as my dirty APU.
The far right light at the top is only supposed to come on when there are enough credits to select an album. Is the light burnt out? I assume you have it set up where A1-V1 are album sides and all others are singles?
Looks like I also discussed the problem here on this forum and it was Scudie that helped me narrow the problem down to the APU!
I had the same problem with one of mine. After cleaning the contacts on the APU it started working properly. Here’s a thread on another forum where I discussed it: http://jukeboxaddicts.proboards.com/thread/1057/sc1-selections?page=1&scrollTo=6267
I’ve used ScanDisk 2,4, & 8 GB cards and some other off brand from Wal-Mart with no problem. I let the Java software program you provide do the formatting. I think I remember someone else having a problem when they formatted themselves in FAT 32.
You might have better luck communication with the manufacturer by contacting them through eBay instead of here:
Scudie – I’m curious. Does the volume control mod to separate the common negative between the speakers work the same for the SCH models as it does on the SC model?
I suppose it would be simple enough to add a diode and capacitor in front of each LED to convert the AC to DC.
Oh… I haven’t tested voltages across those. Look forward to hearing how they work out for you. I haven’t heard of bi-polar LEDs before. Are they supposed to work on AC current too?
I believe the two that light up the program pages are in series each getting about 12 volts.
