[Histonet] Sakura Xpress processor CMOS battery fail

[Michael Kent]

Our Sakura Xpress 120 (no longer supported as of Jan '18), has an error of "CMOS Checksum error-defaults loaded CMOS battery failed". Processor is slow to start up. Appears to run OK after long warm-up. Sakura only replaces the board, at a prohibitive expense and not making new part. Anyone tried replacing the CMOS battery on the board? We're concerned that may finish it off.  Thoughts and experiences will be much appreciated.
