titchyblackcat Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 Hi My HD bean is not keeping its presets after switching off. Does the HD bean have an internal battery that can be changed ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No battery into the POD.. if the problem is that when you turn the POD back on you can't find anymore the presets you imported or created by using the editor, this is probably due to the fact that before closing the editor you didn't use the SEND command to send the new presets permanently into the POD. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ All about POD HD500/X help and useful tips Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pianoguyy Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 I can't speak for the Bean. But I did ask this same question about the 500. No battery in the 500. However, I will at least point out, you are absolutely correct in your way of thinking. In many devices, when settings don't save, it is because the internal battery has died. Newer devices, however, are using a different kind of memory storage which doesn't need batteries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
titchyblackcat Posted June 19, 2021 Author Share Posted June 19, 2021 OK Thanks guys. I'll just have to keep reloading the presets when i want to use it. How does it keep the memory if it doesn't have a Battery ? Capacitor ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash memory, similar to the SD card in your camera or smartphone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DolurumMafikala Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 Thinking along @hurghanico 's lines, does it forget all presets, or only new ones? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pianoguyy Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 well, yeah, i guess since we know what it is not, we need to figure out what it is. lol *but are we sure the bean is the same as the 500 by not having a battery? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
titchyblackcat Posted June 28, 2021 Author Share Posted June 28, 2021 It's only new presets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Searching, I find that the original Pod and Pod 2 did have a battery, and a test mode to check it, but the HD bean does not. L6 seem to have moved to Flash memory in the HD series. I don't have an HD bean so this is just me inferring from other info. @titchyblackcat are you definitely sending the presets the way @hurghanico described? Sorry to ask, but wanted to eliminate that aspect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
titchyblackcat Posted July 4, 2021 Author Share Posted July 4, 2021 Thanks for the reply. I opened it up to make sure. It doesn't have a battery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
