The theater I work at got a bunch of LED Moving Heads from MS Lighting for this season. Out of the box they seemed great, really bright and lots of colors, but we're having a few problems.
1. When you move them they will sometimes flash. If the intensity is at zero they flash in some random color. If they are on they just flash in that color. It seems like they are less likely to do it when moved slowly. Really annoying if you want dark, smooth transitions!
2. When reset, sometimes they switch the tilt direction or the pan direction. This seems to depend also on whether I have the board on and whether I'm sending them any DMX signal. Still experimenting with that.
3. They get slightly off position. For the last show for I was resaving focus palettes every day because they won't go back to all the same spots.
Anyone have ideas what I could do to fix some of this? We're using an Ion with a profile for these that the LD made. The light's model number is MHLED 3615Z.
