I'd give Apollo a call first to see if someone there can maybe talk you through some troubleshooting. It may save you from having to ship it there and back.

The start up/calibration procedure upon getting power is to open fully. If it is already fully open, it will close slightly, then open fully. Once it has opened fully, it will start taking commands. If there is no signal, it will stay fully open. If it doesn't stay fully open, it is receiving a...

I'm subscribed and enjoying the podcast as well.Google Podcasts doesn't always automatically download it though.

No. That is was the ceiling.

While there are idiots that will do their own thing, not all eggs are bad. If people care at all, they can make it work. The church I attend and volunteer at is doing their best to adhere to the guidelines. They record everything at once in one night, as opposed to rehearsal one night, then...

That is correct. The website hasn't been updated. A lot of things are being "made up as we go" and there are lots of things.In related news, we are working on something called ear savers, but that is pretty much all I know about them. Apparently, the elastic bands behind the ears are...

I don't remember what major company it is, maybe GE, but we have been asked for a UV-C (220nm) version of our 4UV.

Everyone is working on lights for this. Part of my new job.

I have the minor lysdexia that often comes with ADHD. Seems to be getting worse as of late, especially when typing..... When talking, I frequently swap words in sentences, eg: I'm going to pull the garage in to the car. I catch it a little more than half of the time. Depending on who's...

In a 4-pin cable, pins 2 and 3 carry the data and pins 1 and 4 carry DC power to power the unit. If you were to make a 5-pin to 4-pin cable to plug into your devices, they would not work since they are only getting data but no power, like a moving head fixture that isn't plugged into AC and...

I wonder if this actually happened before the show. It obviously would have been in the works before.

Since I can't be blamed for a necropost, thanks/bad @Buttmonkey, and this is a good thread, I'll throw my two cents in on this.What I've heard and makes the most sense to me lines up with the line in bold. The idea was that the main curtain has to be raised up for additional bows so many...

I believe we are the only ones making gel strings at this point. I think White Light is our dealer in the UK.

As of now, we are alternating going to LDI and NAMM each year. We did NAMM this year, so LDI will be next year. Yes, that means, aside from USITT, which we are still planning on attending every year, we will do two big shows within a couple months of each other and then not another one until...

Not really being a lightning person and having only used metal when I have been coerced into it, I don't know much about gobos. I do know "upsidedown and backwards" when it matters. On some glass gobos, side matters, but others don't. Hopefully @Kelite is within earshot to help out.
