peza2010 Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 My first response would be have you checked the lamp?Have you tried making them do anything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamtastic3 Posted October 7, 2010 Share Posted October 7, 2010 Hmmm, need more info I think! Are the heads second hand/brand new?When the head homes, can you hear the attributes inside resetting and does the head tilt as well as pan?Are there any errors coming up?Have you linked them to a desk and manually tried to bring attributes up?

marktownend Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 I believe these will be the ex-install Silverstar branded units I sold Matt via ebay as spares or repair with quite a thorough listing, saying I thought the majority of the problems were going to be with the wiring looms...

serious_sound&light Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 Check the lamp sensor (phototransistor on a small board near the lamp) and its wiring. If the light from the lamp is not detected after 30 seconds or so, the pic will switch it off for 5 minutes before trying a restrike. This happens 7 times before an error is displayed.Motor control is by a pair of identical pcbs in the arms of the yoke (4 motors on each side). These need power and serial data from the main board. This is either there or it's not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
