I'm working down at the theater today, and around noon 5 or 6 channels on my dimmer pack started ghosting and were uncontrollable from the board, so I turned off the dimmers and worked on some other things. When I turned on the dimmers later today about 30 channels were ghosting so I started to try and diagnose the problem. After my dinner break I came back turned the dimmers back on and all 48 dimmers are ghosting. Since then I have been trying to fix the problem. In trying to fix it I have:
-Turned on and off the board and reset it
-reset all of the dimmer packs and checked their addresses
-manually flipped off all of the circuts on the dimmers and then turned them back on to control
-unplugged all of the dmx connections and then repluged it all
-tried plugging the dmx into another control board and brought all faders to zero
-turned the dimmer packs off to rest for awhile and then turned them back on.
-tried controlling just one dimmer pack at a time
None of these tries were successful (except them actually going off when i cut power but coming right back on when i put power back through.)
The board I am using is an Elation Show designer 3
I also tried them in a Leprecon 48/96
The dimmer packs I am using are Leprecon MX-2400 dimmer packs and i have 4 of them adding up to 48 dimmers.
I talked to the Tech Director and tried all of his suggestions but he is out of town working on another show.
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks!!
