AX2 Transformer Secondary Wiring Voltages

As a precaution to ensure proper transformer wiring, this page explains what


voltages the secondary wires need to see. Before wiring up a new
transformer, you may want to measure the voltages on the secondary taps for
verification.

The blue and red wires on the AX2 rear board need to see about 9.75 VAC
between them.

The yellow and orange wires on the AX2 rear board should have about 59
VAC across them. The green wire is the center tap between the yellow and
orange, so yellow-to-green should have about 29.5 VAC and orange-to-
green should have about 29.5 VAC.

Procedure for reinitialization of AX2 (Hard reset)

Power unit up while holding down the “User/Preset” and “Save” buttons.
Hold for 3 seconds and then release. Factory presets will be re-installed.

Procedure for identifying firmware version of AX2

While amp is on, hold down the top (“Aux/Midi”) and bottom (“Main”)
function buttons simultaneously. The software version will be displayed in
the LED display.
Accessing the test routines
Press and hold the Save button while turning power on until the display reads
“SrA” to access the internal test routines. Different tests can be selected by using the
BANK UP or BANK DOWN buttons. The selected test is started by pressing the
TUNER button. The display will then usually show “Err” (error) or “PAS” (pass) to
indicate the test status. The nine tests are:

# Display Name Description Result Display


1. SrA SRAM test Tests SRAM (U15) Err or PAS
2. EPr EPROM test Tests EPROM (U14) Err or PAS
3. LEd LED test Lights all LEDs no result; visual inspection
4. bAt Battery test Tests SRAM retention Err or PAS
5. bUt Button test Tests buttons & pots Displays button or pot name
6. PEd Pedal test [only at factory] Err
7. AC AC timer test Tests AC freq counter Err or PAS
8. idi MIDI test Tests MIDI in & out Err or PAS
9. Aud Audio test Passes audio with delay Err or blank
10. AdA A/D/A path test Tests audio THD, etc. Err or PAS (version 1.05)

Power off then on to exit the test routines.

Descriptions of Test Routines


SrA The SRAM test performs read and write cycles to all memory locations of the
SRAM. If the data read back is different than what was written, the display will show
Err. If this occurs, check all signals connected to U15.

EPr The EPROM test calculates the checksum of the EPROM and compares it with
the checksum stored in the EPROM. If it does not match, the display will show Err. If
this occurs, it usually indicates that there is some erroneous data in the EPROM (or a
missing checksum), and the EPROM should be replaced (U14). It could also be caused
by a problem on an upper address line connected to the EPROM. However, in general,
major problems with the EPROM or the address and data lines are likely to prevent any
of the test routines to be entered in the first place.

LEd The LED test can be used to check that all LEDs are functioning properly. First,
all LEDs will turn on at the same time. Then, the software will cycle each LED on and
off one at a time. When the six LEDs next to the edit potentiometers are cycled, they will
be lit at half brightness. NOTE: When entering this test, holding TUNER will cause all
of the LEDs to stay on until the button is released.

bAt The battery test actually is testing the SRAM’s contents, which can be an
indicator as to the battery status. It checks to see if a specific set of SRAM locations
contain specific data. This data is loaded in once at the factory, and it is assumed that if
the data remains unchanged in the field, the battery is working properly. If an error
occurs, it will be necessary to check the battery, the SRAM, and the reset circuitry. Once
an error has occurred, it will continue to reoccur until the specific data is written back to
the SRAM. This can be performed from within this test routine by pressing and holding
the SOUND D button and the USER/PRESET button. The display will show “---” to
indicate that the SRAM has been initialized.

bUt The button test can be used to check that each button and edit potentiometer is
working properly. Pressing each button will cause the name of that button to be
displayed. The display will show as follows:

Button Display
no button “---”
User/Preset “U-P”
Sound Bank Up “UP ”
Sound Bank Down “Dn “
Sound A “A“
Sound B “b“
Sound C “C“
Sound D “d“
Tuner “tnr”
Compare “CPr”
Store Sound “Str”
Function 1 “Fn1”
Function 2 “Fn2”
Function 3 “Fn3”
Function 4 “Fn4”
Function 5 “Fn5”
Function 6 “Fn6”

The function buttons are the small black buttons to the left of the edit matrix. The top
button is 1 and bottom button is 6. When any of the six edit potentiometers are turned,
the display should read “P1” through “P6”, depending on which pot was turned. This test
can be exited by pressing the function 5 and function 6 buttons at the same time. This is
indicated by the LEDs next to each of these switches being lit.

PEd The sixth test is performed on a test fixture at the factory to verify that the pedal
inputs are working. Without the test fixture, this test will always result in an “Err”. For
this reason, this test should always be skipped. The pedal inputs can be easily tested by
performing a functional test to see that the wah and volume functions are being controlled
by the pedals. If the pedal inputs do not work, try checking that the voltages reach the
ADC (U7), and that the switch in each jack is working properly. This switch lets the
micro know that something is plugged in, and is sensed by checking the ADC voltage at
U7 pin 11 and comparing it to the table shown in the Power PCB schematic.

AC The AC verifies that the micro can properly determine the current AC line
frequency. It expects to find 50Hz or 60Hz, and will display an “Err” if the results are
different. If this occurs, check the Power PCB signal labeled AC, as well as R38 and Q1
on the Processor board.

idi The MIDI requires that a MIDI cable be connected from the MIDI output back to
the MIDI input. Without this cable, this test will always fail. If the test fails with the
cable, check the connection first, then check U4 on the Power board, and then check for
the serial interface signals at the microcontroller U9 pins 11 and 13 and follow the signal
path through to the MIDI connectors.

AUd The Audio takes the Guitar input and passes it unmodified to the left speaker, and
takes the Aux input and passes it unmodified to the right speaker. It also adds a 1 second
delayed signal to each of these signals in order to verify that the audio DRAM (U13) is
functioning properly. The audio passes through both DSPs, so this test checks their
functionality as well. The display should be blank during this test. If the display reads
“rd1 or “rd2” followed by “Err”, this means that an error occurred when the micro tried
to read data from either DSP. If the error was “rd1”, then the problem was between the
micro (U9) and the DSP U19. If the error was “rd2”, then the problem was between the
micro and DSP U12.
AdA The speaker outputs must be connected to the aux and guitar inputs. The left
speaker output should be connected to the guitar input, and the right speaker output
should be connected to the aux input. **Since the speaker outputs are too high a level for
the inputs, a pad must be used. Each speaker output should pass through a 30K resistor,
followed by a 1K resistor to ground prior to connecting to the input. ** The Guitar and Aux
input level knobs should be set to 5 (pointing straight up), and the Master volume knob
should be at 0 (off). When this test is first entered, the display will read “OFF”, to inform
you that the Master volume should be off. Press the Tuner button. The software will
output a 1KHz sine wave on both outputs, and verify that no signal is coming in (since
the Master is off). During this test, a dot will appear to indicate the test is running
(display reads “OFF.”). If signal is received, the display will show “Err”, followed by
one of the following:

n L Noise present on left input


n r Noise present on right input
nLr Noise present on left and right inputs
A L 1K Hz Audio tone present at left input
A r 1K Hz Audio tone present at right input
ALr 1K Hz Audio tone present at left and right inputs

If there are no errors, the display will momentarily show “PAS”, followed by “HLF”.
This stands for “half”, and indicates that the Master volume should now be turned up half
way, or 5 (pointing straight up). Pressing Tuner again will initiate the next tests, and
cause a dot to be displayed again. The software will then check the level, frequency
response, and distortion of both inputs and outputs. It performs this test by outputting a
sine wave at 40Hz, 1KHz, and then 10KHz, and measuring the absolute input level, the
relative input level, and the level of signal at frequencies other than the tone being
generated. If there is an error, the display will show “Err”, followed by one of the
following alternating messages:

Ldt XX Left distortion too high by XX dB.


rdt XX Right distortion too high by XX dB.
L40 ±XX Left amplitude error at 40Hz of ±XX dB.
L 1 ±XX Left amplitude error at 1KHz of ±XX dB.
L10 ±XX Left amplitude error at 10KHz of ±XX dB.
LA ±XX Left amplitude error of ±XX dB.
r40 ±XX Right amplitude error at 40Hz of ±XX dB.
r 1 ±XX Right amplitude error at 1KHz of ±XX dB.
r10 ±XX Right amplitude error at 10KHz of ±XX dB.
rA ±XX Right amplitude error of ±XX dB.
L-r Left signal crosstalk into the right input.
r-L Right signal crosstalk into the left input.

The relative amplitude of the three tones are used to determine the frequency response. If
any one tone is more than 1dB from the relative volume of the other tones, it will be
displayed as an error. If all three tones are more than 1dB apart from each other, the one
that is the furthest away from the other two will be displayed. If the amplitude of all
three tones are within 1dB of each other, the average is taken and compared with an
absolute level that is expected when all knobs are at 5. If this absolute amplitude has an
error of ±2dB or more, the display will show the error amount. When measuring the
level of each tone, the software will also measure the level after passing the signal
through a steep notch filter set to the same frequency as the tone. If the level after the
filter is greater than a predetermined level, the display will show the number of dB above
this level that the distortion exists. If when performing the tests on the left input, signal is
received in the right, or vice versa, the display will show this as a crosstalk error.
If there are no errors, the display will momentarily show “PAS”, followed by “FUL”.
This indicates that the Master volume should now be turned up all the way to 10.
Pressing Tuner again will initiate the next tests, and display a dot. The software will
again check the level, frequency response, and distortion of both inputs and outputs, and
will display “PAS” or any of the above mentioned error displays. The tests are identical,
except that the software’s output level is dropped 6dB to accommodate for the increase in
Master volume level. If an error occurs only during the half way up test and not the full
test, or vice versa, the Master stereo pot or its connections should be considered the likely
source of the problem.

Troubleshooting
For technicians familiar with component level troubleshooting and surface mount
components, the test routines, the circuit descriptions and the schematic diagrams should
be useful tools in focusing in on the problem. If the problem cannot be specifically
located, an attempt should be made to identify which board is the source of the problem.
At that point, a board swap would be the most likely solution.

Software history
All AxSys 212s starting from serial number A1-009160 were shipped with version 1.05
software. AxSys 212s that are serviced that do not have version 1.05 should be updated to
1.05 (or above, if new releases occur). AxSys 212s starting from serial number A1-
005701 through A1-009159 were shipped with version 1.04 software. Of the first 700
AxSys 212s built (serial numbers A1-005001 through A1-005700), approximately the
first 25 units contained version 1.00, the next 50 units contained 1.01, the next 100 units
contained version 1.02, and the remainder contained 1.03. These updates took care of a
few rare bugs that could result in the amp freezing until it is turned off and on, and some
other minor changes. The change to 1.04 or higher also includes some new user features
(such as the main global controls), so if an update is performed, be sure to provide the
user with the manual addendum sheet included with the EPROM update. The specific
changes implemented in version 1.05 are listed in ECO #19.

TEST #9: AUDIO/DRAM/8031 READ Test: (display shows “Aud”)


Checks that audio signal passes from both inputs to both outputs.
Checks the DRAM for functionality. Checks that 8031
microcontroller is writing to both DSP chips (U12,19) It is impossible
to list all the potential problems for this test. It is best to find the area
where the problem is and go from there. Below is a basic flow chart of
how the audio passes from the input of the board to the output.

Analog Input: Check for audio at these points.


AUX Input: 1.) 1/4” jack J1 pin #1 and 4-pin header M2 pin #1.
2.) U1 pin #3,1,8. Make sure volume (R6) is up.
3.) U2 pin #1,3 (it is normal for signal to look “fuzzy” here.)

MAIN Input:1.) 1/4” jack J2 pin #1 and 4-pin header M2 pin #4.
2.) U1 pin #5,7,14. Make sure volume (R8) is up.
3.) U2 pin #12,14 (it is normal for signal to look “fuzzy” here.)

ADC: At this point the audio has been converted to digital so


you must check for a digital signal.
1.) U3 pin #18.
2.) Check for clock signals at U3 pins #15-17.

DSP:
1.) Check for ADC signal at U12,19 pin #56.
2.) Check for digital signal at U19 pin #57.
3.) Check for DAC signal at U19 pin #49.
4.) Check for clock signals at U12,19 pin #14,55,67,68,69

DAC: Audio is converted from digital back to analog.


1.) Check for DAC signal (digital signal) at U4 pin #8
1.) Check for analog audio signal at U4 pin #17,18.
2.) Check U4 pin #19 for reference voltage 2.5v dc.
If the reference voltage is incorrect, replace U4.
3.) Check clock signals at U4 pin #5,7,9.

AUDIO OUT: Check for analog audio signal at these points.


LEFT:1.) M3 pin #1,2. Make sure volume (R71 on break-
away board) is up.
2.) U5 pin #2,13.

RIGHT:1.) M3 pin #4,5. Make sure volume (R71 on break-


away board) is up.
2.) U5 pin #7,11.

DRAM: 1.) Check +5v and ground connections on U13.


2.) Check all connections between U13 and U19.

8031 READ:1.) Check all connections between U19 and U9


for “rd1”, “Err” message.
2.) Check all connections between U12 and U9 for “rd2”, “Err”
message.

MISC PROBLEMS:

SEVEN SEGMENT & LEDs DON’T LIGHT UP


1.) Check for shorts between +5v and ground.
2.) Check that reset on U9 pin #10 is low (0v).
3.) Check for 6.2v across D57 zener diode.
