warlockII Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 I mistyped...it's a Pod X3 Live, not xt...don't know if that matters. I'm going crazy trying to update my JTV 89F. Unfortunately, it didn't come with the USB box. I thought no big deal as according the info I've found on this website, I can connect via the Pod X3 live, HD500 or HD500x. The monkey and workbench hd aren't thinking the variax is connected. I've searched this site, youtube and google and can't find someone showing (or describing clearly) how to do this. What I've done 1. Fully charged the battery in the 89F 2. down loaded monkey 3. plugged 89f into variax port on pod (yes the pod is on) 4. plugged guitar cable into 89F 5. plugged usb cable between pod and computer Please give me the idiots guide :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CipherHost Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 I don't know why exactly, but sometimes when I used to do updates thru my 500X, Monkey would not see my JTV-89F. I only use the USB VDI Interface now, but since you don't have that option, you may want to try changing the order you use to connect things up. What I mean is, if everything is connected when you start Monkey and Monkey does not see you JTV, unplug the JTV from your POD, wait a second, then plug it back in again. If nothing happens, re-scan for devices in Monkey. You can do this same process with the POD's USB cable to see if that helps. I did something like this process when Monkey could not see my JTV-89F a while back. Hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
