Prizm 5.5 faulty board ?!
« on: March 23, 2019, 06:55:48 AM »
Hello

I'm having problem with the second Prizm 5.5 board

Because im building GrandMaster double staff i got two Prizm

Everything on the board work except i dont have any lights 😔😔

I know my blade and base conmector are good and my switchs too
cos i connected all the parts to the first working board and i got Lights !!

There is something weird happening when i connect it,,i want to show you a video !
But too big for dropbox :(

As soon i connect battery Without booting the soundboard there already led that light up !!!
It dont do that on first one i did !!

Can board be faulty ?!

I even debrige the pad and try connecting  normal tri-led  and it does same thing
As soon i connect the battery the led lights up but not fully,,i would say about quater intensity 😔

And once i powered up the board there no diferrence in light intensity !!!

So on and off there is no difference and even off the leds still stay on ?!?!
Only when i disconnect battery that they shut off !

Please help me !

spacewindu was having some issues like this just last week. Not sure he nailed down 100% what the issue was buy he did fix it

This might help?

You probably have a short on the L- pad on the board

in ledstrip mode, the L- pads (power drivers) are used to control the ledstrip negative. You might want to detail your problem and share pictures of the board and videos to explicit what is happening
