New ALP CPU constantly beeping and red flashing led

[busta]

From what I am reading it is not a lead problem but just do not plug in different makes of heads to different CPU's ?

yep,agreed, i was just trying to make a change over more simple , with an adapter lead

That is a Given not to try to connect a Blinder or Laser Interceptor head to your CPU but the G9 Heads are fine to connect to the AL Priority just use the wires that are on the heads already. Don't mix the AL Priority wiring with the G9 heads.

Maybe they need to put that in the manual.
I did read through it and could not find any mention re the G9 cabling.

I knew using other brands or older gen e.g. g8 = bad but there really needs to be mention of this.

Would be nice to see in the manual.
"Even though the ALP cpu is backwards compatable with the G9 heads, using the ALP cabling to connect to the G9 heads will result in failure of the head.

Because, I now have to buy a new head which I am slightly annoyed about...

Of course I will mention it to them when I speak with them on Monday but you are the only one that so far used an AL Priority Sensor cable on an older G9 head. You should also take this issue up with your dealer that sold you the product. If it was one of our customers that had an issue we would have handled the situation in a way that you would have been very happy with. Don't give up contacting DGC if you purchased the system from him and seeing what he can do to help you.

Lets hope Tim gives me the same top notch service like BRD.
I am sure he will, he has never let me down in the past. .

tim was happy to swap out my cpu ..I could of done any thing submerged in water crossed over some wires added different heads etc ..

he never even questioned me

he did say though because its a new system on the maket and that my cpu was one of the first batches that has just been released.. he wants to know about faults within the system so they can address them sooner rather than later... he gave me a new CPU hot off the shelf

I took what he said so im guessing the newer CPUs may be a little different

my biggest fear is my sound system Im pushing at 150.4 DBs and im still building ...this shakes every thing even want to push out windows.. the vibrations of this may of rattled my cpu to bits .. I have had screws come out of RDs dash cams even the inside of enterior want to start tearing apart let alone welds on the body start to crack

give tim a call or email him see what he says

but when it states in the manual heads are compatible ie G9 heads only

like the G9cpu stated that cant put G8 heads into the G9 cpu because of different voltages

in yet in the manual of the ALP states all G9 heads are compatible

unless he does not have the real G9 heads connected and using a copy brand ie TW G8/of the real G9

we really need to test the lead with metre should do a video on it

Spoke with AntiLaser regarding your issue. They want to know if you checked the pins on the harness to make sure that one of the pins did not bend and cause a short because they should be wired the same as the AL Priority and using the wrong cable should not have caused an issue.

"We have not changed AL Connecting cables or Extension cables in the past four years so our old cables should work with new parts and vice versa."

The wires look different between the ALP cable and my G9RX2 cable...
The colours etc.
The pins look fine.

I am just waiting for my mates to return my LI kit that I lent out, so I can send my unit back to DGC.
