8X24 switch won't hold memory during power down.

Every time there is a power glitch, the system needs to be reprogrammed.

It's now plugged into a dedicated UPS, but I was wondering what the RIGHT fix is for it ?

I opened the cabinet, and the obvious suspect is a big electrolytic cap, 5.5v 1F ... I didn't see anything else that looked like a battery.

Is this what goes bad on these ? or is it more complicated than that.

thanks!

That's it.

If you have the 2-piece software cartridge, then you need to replace the 2 memory caps in the data cartridge.
