I have a quick question for any Roland System 500 owners out there.
Can anyone help me figure out which of the two terminals I’m supposed to connect the connector which links all the modules together?
This system was shipped to me faulty due to a module being plugged in incorrectly. After some time, I finally sorted it out and was able to have it up and running. But after reading through the Roland ‘users manual’, I noticed that this case provides both positive and negative voltages.
So my question today is, which of the two terminals am I supposed to connect the long ribbon cable to?
I was about to screw it down and run it as is, but I’m pretty sure I’d fry all the modules because I have no idea what I’m doing.
Hard to tell from your picture if they are just identical pin headers or not but it shouldn’t really matter, just make sure to connect it the correct way round (ie. so the red stripe on the cable is in line with the white stripe on the header.
