Help!!!

[Mike R]

I have a bit of a problem with my illusion 120, sometimes (most of the time at the moment) when I plug the power in and turn it on, all of the LEDs on the front panel light up and the submaster page display shows random numbers (40,42,06,12,00...) and the desk doesn't turn on. sometimes when it does turn on, it crashes and resets, leaving the LEDs on sometimes and surprisingly dmx coming out. Its going in for a service next week with the local dealer, but i'm running a show with it for the rest of the week and obviously i'd prefer it not to crash during one. Has anyone else experienced this and if so what can I do, other than sending back to Wales?

 

Thanks

Dear Sir

 

I can think of a few things that may be the cause of your problems.

The first would be one of the Sim modules, either not seated correctly in it holder or it may have developed a fault.

The other is the seating of one of Eproms on the main PCB.

There is also a possibility of a loose or trapped ribbon cable to one of the front panel PCB's giving random adderss line short out.

 

I feel that the best solution is to return it to us to have a look at it for you.

Please feel free to contact me if you would like to discuse this further.
