Meridian Unplugged - Powered by MrTechGuy.co.uk Forums Discussion Meridian - Systems G68 not working

Hi, Hope you were able to revive the G68!
The 5.2V made my volume knob more responsive, so for me a worthwhile tweak.
You can also power it down, take off the power lead. Adjust the pot meter a little, power it back on and then check voltage. But in the end you'll be measuring with the voltage on, so I just tweaked it while the power was on. You just need to be a little careful, but as there are no open 230V wires, you should be fine unless you are really clumsy .

Hello

Thank you for your great advises, I will wait until the wiki is on, to use the pictures to guide me. I was indeed able to make the G68 working using the new PSU version 6, it was a challenge as I never solded, but fun to do. To be honest the explanations and pictures were great help, great job in sharing.

Now, I need to find out what is and how to use a voltmeter

The Potmeter is on the top left. turning it to the right will up the voltage, memory serving me well. To the left down. If I forgot, then it is the other way round It was about a quarter turn for me to the right to move it from 5 to 5.2.

A voltmeter is something you can purchase in any diy shop . It comes with a dial which you need to set to i.e. 10V (DC) and 2 measuring pins of which you put the black one on the black wire and the red one on the red wire.
