If Cortex would have included a wiring diagram in their quick start guide... I guess the new generation relies on Youtube for instructions, I'm old school and like to read manuals and drawings. It is a sign I'm old and being phased out.
I only wanted the CRU to end the pesky buzzing of a gear door servo. The JP controller worked great otherwise, and had another power source.
I just got a response form my Digitech dealer, and they will not help me get it fixed. I tested it yesterday and it works okay, and I wanted a new cover, because in the crash it got scratched and dented.
so it goes.
this is from the jeti CB200 manual :
Caution: Rx1, Rx2, Ext1, and OUT/IN are not protected against overload.
Maximum output current is 300mA for output.
Overloading causes irreversible damage of the Central Box.
in the quick manual from the bavarian demon i found this :
CONNECTION SERIAL-IN / SERIAL-OUT Connect receiver to port A, or, in case of 2 receivers, to A+B.
Serial output available on ports 5+6 parallel.
Using Jeti, it‘s important to stick to the connection advice in the main manual!
as per your statements :
"just got a response form my Digitech dealer, and they will not help me get it fixed."
i believe i just old you i will fix it for free , as long you pay for the shipping.
so i dont know who you got it from? feel free to contact me on
[email protected].
as for the servo outputs as you said your old school and read manuals.
it was clearly written everywhere what goes and what goes not .
simply put , you connected to much stuff on a receiver while you have 3 protected dedicated ports that are for those..
