Hi.
(I am new here, working as a computer programmer by day, but helping our local school running their lighting installations as an amateur for the past 8 years or so, whilst an electronics engineer friend runs the sound desks and radio mikes etc. Reasonalby electronically minded and handy with soldering irons, components etc.) Have loads of analogue racks, lights, some analogue desks, but my old trusty favourite desk partially died on night 1 of school production so looked around for replacement desk)
As result I have recently acquired a Sirius 24 for school setup , but all working except would you believe it Channel 13
Sirius 24 00-480-00, serial 0284338 (mk2 ?) with memory card slot and DMX Output; Super User indicates software level 4323.
on PRESETS ONLY, GRANDMASTER 100%, A MASTER 100%, B MASTER 100%:-
All otherchannels (1 to 12, 14 to 24) output from 0v to 10V as faders moved from 0% to 100 % as expected, but channel 13 not happy.
I get the following as I raise either of the A or B channel 13 presets:
at 0% preset = 0.28V output on analogue 13
From about 5% to 100% gives output of around 3.55 Volts, decaying initially by 0.01 volt per second, down to around 3.49v, thereafter slowing to decay by 0.01v every 5 seconds.
The Green channel 13 light illuminates but never at full brightness like the other channels, so I presume this matches the approx 3.5 volt level being output.
From what I can work out so all other faders and parts seem to work fine, chase programming sets up OK. Have not yet checked memory programming, as would like to get the channel 13 happy again to go with our analogue racks.
Anybody help with an easy solution???
