Re: Machine - reset pass code

Re: Machine - reset pass code
Agreed budm, just dropped them a very broken english mail looking for a code, if I don;t hear back I'll try the battery option. Sure I'll let ye know how I get on out of interest...Leave a comment:

Re: Machine - reset pass code
I'll echo that!
Looking at the website, the before and after pics don;t show much of a difference....
I'm putting the lot through bablefish now to see if I can find anything...Last edited by Dessied; 05-20-2014, 02:16 PM.Leave a comment:

Re: Machine - reset pass code
Probably, the image above showing the PCB text includes the battery close up - it appears to be welded to the two vertical metal flaps so will require a bit of force.
Tried this, alas no joy, thanks anyway would have been a quick fix
Sorry, not sure how to, more of a software slant than hardware. IBut I guess you're right, chances are it's dead, unfortunately it's welded rather than a simple clip.
Yeah you're right in it is some electro-therapy...Leave a comment:

Re: Machine - reset pass code
My God, how did you find that, it's the exact same machine!
I've uploaded a zoom of the PCB text. Thanks for the feedback....Leave a comment:

Re: Machine - reset pass code
I'll check re: manual but don't think so. It is a facial / body toner (whatever that means) and yes, looks like 2003 alright! Probably why I can't find anything to do with it on Google etc.
She was using this fine up to a few months ago, but one day, switched it on and it started looking for.a code. Only thing I can think to try is to take out the battery and see? There's no jumpers etc. would be nice to help her out cos she spent a lot on it and hasn't had much in the way of luck recently...Last edited by Dessied; 05-19-2014, 05:06 PM.Leave a comment:

Re: Machine - reset pass code
Sorry, you're correct lack of info in my first post
.
For make & model there's not much to go on - the machine is called "Microlift" and bar a serial number there's nothing else I can find. Tried Google etc of course but nothing.
Attached a few photos:-
1 - The message that displays which is "System Code 18 - Press any ket to continue". When you do it looks for a code.
2 - The Microlift box
3 & 4 - Two pics of the only circuit board. You can see the battery...Last edited by Dessied; 05-19-2014, 02:31 PM.Leave a comment:

Machine - reset pass code
Hi All
First post here, hope to get a steer on an electronic problem. A friend of mine runs a beauty salon on her own and purchased a machine a few years ago - square box around 30" x 12" x 5". Paid a lot of money for it which she didnt really have.
About 2 months ago it suddenly prompted for a pass code. The firm has gone bust and there is no way of her getting a code or support. I'm from a software background, but said I'd take a look, only thing I could think of trying was seeing if there was a cmos battery, and removing it to see if it would reset.... -
