Hi All,
I am new to this forum and and looking for some answers about an old Roboscan 218. I recently acquired this light on an auction for $10 in a partially non working condition. When I power the light on, the bulb strikes, and the fixture runs through its startup. The issues i am having is that the pan and tilt motors don't move and I can not make it respond to dmx.
I have opened it up to start diagnosing the problem. I have found that on the motherboard, the 2amp fuse is blown. I have tried replacing this fuse but it will blow again as soon as power is applied.
Any ideas about what could cause this?
I would like to get this fixed but don't want to spend tons of money on an old light. If I can get it working, well great. if not, I am not out much money.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jon
