Hey guys, I have something here I don't understand.

I turned my Disco Fever on the other day and it booted into the audits mode and then just started cycling through all of the audit settings starting at 1. I noticed the auto switch was up in the auto mode. When I put it down to manual, and hit the advance button, the cycling stopped.

Almost accidentally, I checked the cmos batteries and they were dead. I replaced the batteries and the problem went away. I verified it again by pulling the battery and the machine boots to audits mode and begins cycling through them.

Anyone know why:
1. Machine boots to audit mode when there is no battery?

2. Why machine starts cycling through the audit numbers?

Thanks,

Bill

I'll have to look at the schematic again. I thought the only thing the battery did was supply power to the 5101 when the power is off. Not sure how dead battery would cause any of that behavior.
