Hi there,

My Vision series gives me some problem:

Main battery low: I changed the coin size one, I bought it new but shows: 2,5 volts... Is that enough?    I changed the green battery as well.

The rumour says there's a third battery in the top box... Can't see any... Where this one would be?

Thanks for your help.

Main battery is on the MPU board. 2.5V is not enough juice.

New and new old stock (NOS) is not the same.

2.5 volts enough considering the CMOS RAM only requires 2 or more volts to maintain data per device specifications.
RAM uses micro amps in standby mode.

When I swapped the 504 out the button battery tested at 2.4xV and no error from the machine at the time.

I did put the 504 back in a while back forgot to check battery but did not get a battery error from machine then either.
I needed to test a 502 board so I put the 504B and its motherboard in since I knew the board was good other than battery being a bit low.
The 502 was also about 2.3-2.4V at the time it did not error either.

Reel Touch machines have a cmos battery in the top box, but I didn't think the vision games did Scratch Head

Hi,

Thanks for your comments.

I was wondering at one one thing... Wouldn't mt coin sized battery upside down? If so, I can understand why it shows low battery...

The picture is awful but good enough to have a look at the battery.

Battery in a socket the positive(+) side goes up.
The positive side goes to the left terminal (it is also marked positive (+)
The inside (terminal on the right) is the negative

It definitely looks like either you or your tech reversed the polarity when installing the battery.

Thanks for confirming.

My tech must have been drunk  Crazy. I cannot blame him that much as I was there when he did it and I realized his mistake only 5 minutes ago.
