PreenFM 3 top LED not blinking
« on: December 08, 2020, 01:47:17 PM »
I was a bit too busy to mention it, but on my PreenFM 3 the top LED is not working, never did.

The LEDs on the mainboard do blink fine.

It's not important for me, maybe the blinking would bother me.
But I want to know, if this LED on the topside has a dedicated connection to the mainboard via the stackable connectors.
I have synced the PreenFM 3 to external device and with the internal clock, the LED doesn't work.

It's usefull when using the sequencer or receiving external midi clock.
Yes, you need the right pin of the top 8 pins connector and also the "LED" connection (just bellow the led) to be shorted.
