yamaha 01v96 - crashes , reboots
« on: July 20, 2014, 06:23:31 PM »

Been using 2x 01v96 since years now , all sorts of jobs, all sorts of AC power but never an issue.

During a theatre rehearsal week and just about to go into a show (typical timing!!) my 01v crashes, no display on the screen, backlight remains on, no audio passes. I reboot the desk and it function correctly for the next hour and I just get through the show .

During break I get an analogue desk on standby as a backup.
next show is about to start and the 01v reboots of it's own accord and just when it's finished startup reboots again , this cycle continues.
In the mean time within 20 seconds I've patched in the analogue and get the show done , phew!!!

after the show  switch off the 01v leave for a while and it boots up correctly with no faults.

next day , next show setup my second 01v96 no more problem so I guess this rules out power issues at a guess.

I wonder if anyone here have had similar crashes/rebooting with the 01v96? any fixes?
I will struggle to trust this particular board again.

thanks all, John

You need to get a Fluke meter and learn how to check your power...especially in venues with lots of lighting or food service.

hi , thanks for the reply.
though I did not use this particular time I do have a meter but in this case although not impossible it is unlikely to be a power issue as the venue has perfect history in terms of power reliability (theatre with dedicated audio electrical circuit), and crucially the second 01v96 I set up ran perfectly.

01v's are usually incredibly resilient in bad/low situations and I find other items switch off well before they do. again the many other bits of gear being ran that day did not suffer an issues as I would expect with an electrical power issue.

May seem like a silly question but are you sure there was no moisture or condensation inside. I had something similar happen after leaving one out all night (outdoor show). It was covered but some condensation creeped inside. A few bags of desiccant and a few days and it has been fine for two years.

This and heat/airflow through the unit.

If the internal battery is bad, console will reboot, but you will lose your memories.

Had it happen at a gig, did the show with the console partially open!

Check the battery.

You're O1V96 needs to be serviced for cold solder joints and maybe a new battery.
This happened to both of my units. All was good after some proper servicing.
I didn't loose the memory either.

I don't believe that. The battery is only a backup for the memory when your console is switched off. I don't believe a bad battery will cause a Yamaha console to reboot. Lose it's memory, yes. Reboot, no.

THIS.

Just like the grounding issue in the original 01v, it's fixable by your local Yamaha service technician.  I think they have a service bulletin about what solder points most often need reflow.  At any rate, any tech that has seen a few of them should know right where to look.

This gig happened two years ago, so my memory may be a little fuzzy.

I'm pretty certain that we lost our scenes.

I'll check with my lighting guy to see if he remembers ( he's 30 years younger than me! )
