Hockeyplayer Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Is there a way to reset the tunings and pickup selections using Workbench? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rewolf48 Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 The easiest way to completely reset is just to overwrite the firmware, but in the Pilots Guide (you know that book thing as found here http://line6.com/data/6/0a06434d108424fb56396d2871/application/pdf/file.pdf) on page 14 you find: Factory Reset Options If, for some reason, or just for the sheer mad joy of it, you would like to restore the 50* factory settings on the Guitar Model Selector knob or a specific preset or all presets on the Alternate Tuning knob/roller, here’s how you do it. Warning: This will erase ALL settings prescribed within the options below. So be sure to ask yourself “Do I really want to do this?†If the answer is yes, go on ahead with your bad self. *NOTE: Factory reset will not restore the Custom 1 or Custom 2 banks. The only way to restore those is to reload the flash memory via Line 6 Monkey. To reset Guitar Model Selector Set the Pickup Selector Switch to it’s middle position, then press and hold the Guitar Model Selector Knob while you plug in a 1/4†cable to power up the guitar. Your Guitar Model Selector LED and Alternate Tuning LED will both flash red. Next, press and hold the Guitar Model Selector knob again. Guitar Model Selector LED will flash red, rapidly 3 times, indicating all 50 guitar models in the Model Selector knob memory locations are now restored to factory settings. Guitar will now return to normal operation. To Reset one or all of the Alternate Tuning presets First, set the Pickup Selector Switch to it’s middle position, then press and hold the Guitar Model Selector Knob while you plug in a 1/4†cable to power up the guitar. Your Guitar Model Selector LED and Alternate Tuning LED will both flash red. Switch the Alternate Tuning knob/roller to any new position - Guitar Model Select know will no longer be lit. To restore all Alternate Tunings, now select MODEL on the Alternate Tuning knob. To restore only 1 preset, select the desired tuning on the Alternate Tuning knob. Once you’ve made your selection, press and hold the Guitar Model Select knob. Guitar Model Selector knob will flash red, rapidly 3 times, indicating all 10 Alternate Tunings or 1 selected Alternate Tuning are now restored to factory settings. Guitar will now return to normal operation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jandrio Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Quoting from James Tyler Variax General FAQ : Factory Reset and Updating the Flash MemoryQ: Why doesn't the Factory Reset procedure described in the manual work?A: The reset procedure described in the JTV manual was removed from the JTV guitars to make room in the memory for the Variax HD Acoustic models that were added in flash memory update v1.80. All JTV guitars with flash memory v1.80 and newer no longer have this factory reset procedure available.To perform a factory reset, re-install, rollback, or update the flash memory on the James Tyler Variax guitars, please use the following link: Variax Reflash and Software update F.A.Q. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hockeyplayer Posted September 2, 2014 Author Share Posted September 2, 2014 Thanks guys, before I do that will the latest version still be there or will I have to update again? (ie 2.0 or 2.1) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rewolf48 Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 "Quoting from James Tyler Variax General FAQ :" Ha! forgot about that - must have found an earlier version :) If you have v2.x then the only procedure is to overwrite the firmware using Monkey - and when it asks if you want to overwrite the presets say yes. The JTV will then have whatever firmware version you overwrote it with 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ritskes Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 I have same problem. I have jtv-69 and when battery is put in a series of lights at the back response. But the variax modeling will not do anything anymore. No lights, no response when using the variax knob. Also not for the tuningknob. Using just jack, no vdi. Battery has been charged. Could not find any usb connection. Q1: How can I reset de JTV-69 standalone? Q2: can i use standard utp (networkcable), as i do not have VDI cable (yet). Q3: how do i reset/connect to my PC /workbench - can i use utp cable? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leowestby Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 I have the same problem with my JVT-89F. No lights, no nothing. Battery is fine and charged but the guitar will not turn on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealZap Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 actually.... Q1: functionality no longer exists... it did with the older firmwares but was removed on the HD firmwares... reset now is re-flashing through monkey. Q2: yes you can use a network cable... but you risk damaging the ports because they lack the proper neutrik ends... will work... at your own risk... be careful. Q3: use the supplied workbench interface or any variax port equipped pod. and yes you can can use the same ethernet cable for this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
