Yes. There are 20 Groups beside SMT, Passive, Factory, TLL, Caps, etc. that can be configured by the user. This is done through the front panel. Press Menu, then Group Edit, then select the Group (Button just below the Menu button) and rotate the encoder until you see Group 20. You can edit this one or any of the other 19 Groups. Use the Name button to change the Group name if you want.

Good morning, I have another question regarding the ProTrack (KJ4 or KJ3), setting. Perhaps it needs it's own topic.
The factory default setup has resistance:
Low    54 Ohm
Mid 1  1.24 KOhm
Mid 2  27.6 KOhm

These resistance setting are not selectable through the encoder nub.
Can users set up resistance besides the 13 selectable ones?

Good morning, thank you for your reply.

Looks like I got to do that on a day off.  ;D  ;D
Happy holidays

Thank you so much for the information.

Those voltages are reading just a bit high. You could try running through the ProTrack setup procedure:
ProTrack final test procedure
You would be looking at section 2.0.

Out of Production Hardware / Protrack fails volt check
Last post by Al1234 - November 27, 2023, 11:44:17 PM
Could anyone shed some light on this please.
Protrack keep failing on the same voltage and some times on the 2nd voltage after its been on for longer.
And if it's been on for longer tge voltage it fails at is a bit higher.

Please see picture of failed voltages.

That amount of dust could give confusing results on high resistance ranges especially in a humid atmosphere!

I broke the front leg with 1 finger, not On purpose
Due to loose scrws under the main board I had to get them out before turning it back on.
Removed almost everything. Then found something very interesting in the back side of the main board. A bridge of dirt from channel A to common. See picture.
I do have intermittent overvoltage massages on this unit. After a good cleanup, we will see if it happens again.

Hello dogansabanoglu!

Please check power supply points:

The reference point for all voltage measurements is the Protrack front banana socket common. Multimeter common to Protrack common.

LOCATION               VOLTAGE                             NAME / FUNCTION
L5 (J22 side)           +4.75 to +5.25 VDC             +5V, +5 volt DC supply for mostly digital circuits

U37 pin 2 (center)  +11.4 to +12.6 VDC             +12V supply

+5A (near C176)     +4.75 to +5.25 VDC             +5A, +5 VDC analog supply

-5A (near C176)      -4.75 to -5.25 VDC               -5A, -5 VDC analog supply

C58 (- lead)             -22.8 to -25.2 VDC              -24V, -24 VDC analog supply

C64 (+ lead)           +22.8 to +25.2 VDC             +24V, +24VDC analog supply

U80 (pin 3)             -11.4 to -12.6 VDC               -12V, -12V LCD supply

These points must also be checked during range changes.
How much do the voltage values jump during the range change?

Yes, there is the same problem on channel B.  I checked the relays you mentioned.  All working.
