Help VPI SDS Issue


I took the plunge and got the SDS. Wow what a difference but I am having an issue. (I am using the 600 rpm motor) In order to get the motor to spin the platter I have to push it to start it moving. The motor is on but it sound like to is hesistating. I unplugged the SDS and no issue it starts right away. Is this an issue with the 600 vs 300 motor?

Even easier. Click this and there is a downloadable manual as well as the calibration information about half way dow the page. The calibration info tell you how to adjust the steps in the voltage.

Hello Drpat.
As Wntrmute stated, the calibration manual is availble in PDF format on VPI's website. The calibration of selecting the "ramp down" voltage is all done via the push buttons on the SDS's front faceplate.

And there's also an hour meter available, you can actually know how many hours of use been placed on your unit.

With my own HW-19 (16lb MK-IV Platter), which had the 600rpm stock Motor, and I'd power up via the Table's on-off switch located on the base, or when I got the VPI SAMA for the HW-19, and decided to power the Table direct from the SDS's switch, never had a problem either way.

More than likely, it would be a problem with the run capacitor on board. Although there just might be that possibility as well, with an ultra heavy platter like the Super Platter, one might have to help it along.

This is something I always commonly do with my own table, as it helps reduce wear and tear on the drive belt. Mark
Thanks for all the advice. Got the downloads and will be adjusting soon. Particularly like the info on the timer! Learned something new! Thanks again.
