You might want to hold the TEMP and the PATCH button while turning on this Fantom G.... red it somewhere on a facebook page)
(just to be sure : make a backup of your internal project and do this with your USB memory disconnected).

I read that to it sez (Press and hold down TEMP+PATCH button while turning power on and FG will boot into test mode. Run the test 2 by pressing Next (F8)

Im not gonna try it,no need to mess with test mode.
and i agree its for service techs.

Hey sutur why do you want to get into test mode? (Just curious)

Very usefull, thanks!

I would like to go into testmode to see if there's a way to test and or calibrate Aftertouch. (see my other posting about this). I recently disassembled the keyboard out of the G7 to do some messuring on the restistor strip for aftertouch, It seems to work fine and has a range of abt 700 kOhm - 0 kOhm, but the G7 responds to aftertouch between 2 kOhm and 0 kOhm. That's a minor range compared to the range of the strip. Therefore, I need an awfull lot of pressure to trigger AT. (I almost break my fingers on it)
If I could calibrate the G7 to respond from 10k or 20k, aftertouch would become usable.

I already informed at a service center and they can order the strip so I can replace it, but knowing the my strip responds to pressure very well (by measuring it while pressing keys), I doubt that the strip is bad. It's more likely that the keys cannot be push far enough to reach the pressure on the strip that is needed (stoppers prevent that).

Thanks
