Hi Guys,
The error 09 means that the microprocessor that turns the power supply on/off and controls the buttons/display on the front of the unit hasn't received any communication from the mainboard within two minutes of power being applied. If you get error 09 you should turn the unit off, then back on and pay attention to your DAC. If your DAC is receiving signal from the BDP before the error 09 message appears then its likely a loose cable inside your system. The serial cable in a BDP-1 is a ten pin grey ribbon cable to runs from the front of the unit to the mainboard, just behind the RS232 port on the rear. A BDP-2 uses a cable made of five individual wires (red, blue, green, black and brown; please keep in mind I'm colour blind so I may have those colours wrong), we have had one occasion that i can recall where one of the wires had broken from the connector.
If the DAC isn't receiving lock/signal then either the BDP is trying to boot from another source (another drive), doesn't have enough power to POST or the BDP's internal CF card (Kingston or Apacer) is no longer functioning. To determine which is the case, whether it be the drives/power or the cf card, unplug all the drives from the BDP and try powering it on. If the error continues you will need to either follow the instructions list below, or if your unable to do so we can make arrangements for repair.
