Arri MAX MOVER control issues?

Hi Guys

Just having an issue with an ARRI Max mover running an 18k Arri max..x2 rigged in a "pod" off a large crane

The "0" (stop) value on one head is actually around 38% and a far more sensitive spot on the fader than the usual %50 "0" on the other one

I am running this on a 6 way comet theatrelight desk through an opto iso up a crane (50mtrs...)

Because I have two of them and one is working totally fine soI have ruled out the main DMX run as an issue

when I pull the DMX all together the troublesome lamp just pans and tilts down,then doesnt respond until a power cycle

Has anyone ever had something like this happen to them?

I am dealing with it currently by just pulling the 32amp power supply to "freeze" the motors

When I have a chance I will try swapping DMX-analog converter box and DMX link to see if its that..

Any ideas welcome!

Cheers

Reuben

Hi Reuben

Probably a little outside the scope of this forum, we normally deal with theatrical stuff rather than film.

 

A bit of a long shot but you might have some luck giving Xytech in Auckland a call and seeing if they can offer any advice, I know they have a lot of film stuff...?
