skypuppy123 Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 Hope there are some experts out there that has some experience with the internal battery - I have so many custom pre-sets in the user setting that if the battery dies, I'll be really screwed. I'm not sure how long this battery has been in there or how long it will last. I'm thinking about putting a fresh one in. Question I have is - to prevent the the USR section going back to default, is it ok to replace the battery while the unit is on? Also, checking the manual , there is no mention of what battery P/N is used? Anyone know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mate stubb Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 The JV should have a patch dump facility. At the very least you should dump everything to a computer so that you can reload everything. I don't think I would be removing batteries with the power on.

ajstan Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 Looks like it uses a CR2032 battery and has a battery holder. No soldering needed. Here are couple of links that should be helpful. Of course, you should back it up before changing the battery. There is a post on the SOS page that says you can change the battery while the unit is on if you use plastic tools, but it's not something I would want to test myself or recommend to others.

mcgoo Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 Regardless of the correct answer (I for one wouldn't try changing the battery while the unit is on), for Pete's sake, back up your patches. It's pretty easy of you have a DAW. If not, surely you know someone who does. If you don't back them up, at some point, you WILL be sorry! Murphy's Law & all that....

skypuppy123 Posted October 14, 2019 Author Share Posted October 14, 2019 Thanks for the info. Yes , backing up is the key here and unfortunately I don't have a Data Storage card, which also uses a battery. A bit risky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't remember what I did when I had mine, but I think you can perform a MIDI bulk dump of all user data. You just need a MIDI interface for your PC and a free program like MIDI-OX. Probably worth checking out.
