After turning the machine on the amps moved from 1.4 to 2.5 and a chime went off. How do I stop the chiming? Also do I wet the wrist band?

If the amp moved to 2.5 there is too much salt in the water, so simply add more water to dilute the salt content. Do not wet the wrist band, but make sure it has good contact with your arm. I hope this helps.

If you added salt to the water,it was too much. The alarm sounds when the amps are too high. And, no you don't need to wet the wrist band. The supplier was very helpful. You can contact them. Since this unit isn't very powerful you can run it for 2 cycles -- an hour total.

The chime can be from there being too much salt in the water which will raise the amp levels. I do not wet the wrist band. I know there are some videos on Youtube that explains a bit more as well.

Please take some time to read the documentation. Fill the footbath with tap water ONLY and get all connected. While running add the salt VERY slowly pausing between sprinkles giving time for the salt to register (This isn't instant coffee). You added too much salt and the only way to bring it back to 2.5 or lower is to add water (dilute) whereas starting over would be more productive. Again read the documentation....

you want to keep your number between 1.8 and 2.4 for detoxing. When it reaches 2.5 it is telling you that the water is too conductive and you need to add more water so the salinity reduces. I keep some water near me for rinsing at the end and also to use in case I need to dilute my footbath. Dont wet the wristband, as long as it is touching your skin it will not show an error on the screen.

There are three levels with the lowest being 1. Hit the minus button right after it errors. If it gets above 2.6 or so, it buzzes and turns off for safety. Causes can be from different things. Ph of the water(don't use salt if it registers high) use distillers water if you can't get it to work. The ph of the client determines the voltage also. I use this commercially and all my clients register differently. Don't use water on the strap or it will register even higher and possibly leave a light burn mark on the wrist(I've done that ). Keep playing with it, be patient and try different things. It is a great unit, you just need to figure it out. There are three levels with the lowest being 1.

I really never paid attention until you posted this question. I just tried it and it chimes for one minute and not until you turn it off.

Sorry but I can only advise you to contact KORG directly. Have you tried using a different power supply? Hopefully it is something simple like that. Good luck.

Thanks. I was afraid of that. Sine wave sweep? Spl meter? I just want to turn down the treble a bit.

push the off button and hold it down till you hear the second set of tones. Thats when it will be off.

I have this same problem. It's loud and I can't for the life of me figure out why it started or how to stop it. I'll have to buy a new machine (not this one).

check and make sure the volume control on the side of the amp is turned up. Its underneath the plastic cap. Hope this helps out

Hi Larry, it looks like you ain't got a cloue on how this thing works! Just follow instructions and take the machine off the heat after it stops gurgeling.- Everything will be alright...the General...

Yes. I did have a problem with the static noise. A slight movement of the amp make a ringing noise. I couldn't bare that sound so I returned it.

It sounds like you must have a defective unit. I don't get a hum with either tubes or solid state amp. Sorry yours is making bad noises.

Those are my sentiments exactly. I installed the alarm a little over a year ago and have looked around for something with a louder audible but have been unsuccessful in finding anything that will resolve the weak electronic chime that comes with the system. Maybe if the manufacturer gets enough requests for a louder more distinctive sound they will provide a replacement or at least market a chime that's louder

Upon turn on, there is a brief spike of current draw at 2.1Amps. Idle is about 0.3A. And most of my listening experience stays under 0.6A at moderate levels. However, I am sure that if you push this thing to its limits, it will exponentially increase. The highest draw I have pulled was 2.5amps, but this is due to apartment living and I am very limited to what levels I can achieve. It was very loud though!

I did not find proof of the cause, but there is an occasional beeping tone. I felt that it was the result of moisture around the watch either from sweat or rain. It was less of a problem if I kept my arm dryer with the use of a cloth to swipe over the arm and watch. The watch was a great one for me as I could replace the plastic band with a Timex metal and plastic band for a better look and feel. The new band seemed to reduce the problem of the un-wanted tones and still have the heart rate feature. You can turn off the pulse feature to halt the tones.

Eric, Sorry it took so long to get back to you. I have this unit on a bike trailer for synchronized to music Xmas lights. I finially got the bike set up yesterday to check it out but couldn't get the unit to work. I installed my old amp to get the music to work. From what I remember last year, the amp starts playing music when power is turned on if the power switch is already turned on. - Mike

Chirping cannot be coming from the wires--has to come from the unit. Sometimes changing the battery won't work because the unit has a limited life. First try blowing dust out of the unit with canned air. If not working, get a new unit--worked like a charm.

Well first check you input gain but on mine the meter suddenly maxed out then dropped to nothing and hasn't worked since. That was on the first day of use. However, everything else works as it should (if a little noisy, it's not the quietest pre-amp). Since my interface has either all phantom power on or off I use the preamp for using both condenser and dynamic mics together. I don't think pinned in the red is normal.

How did you connect the wiring? Did you use butt connectors, solder, tape? I have never encountered static other than for the split second when you switch the device on and it interferes with 87.9. Then it goes quiet. You might check the gain setting on the device with a flathead screwdriver. Mine is turned up all the way.
