Yes.

Unfortunately our entire house areas are shakespeares and we have appx 60 instruments. We are also a school district so not so easily funded.

Hi all, yes we are replacing the lamps at the same time as the sockets (sorry for the incorrect verbage earlier.) I will look into the GLD/GLE lamps.

Hey all, I have Altman Shakespere Leko's in my catwalks that I use for area lights, I hook two instruments up to one dimmer using 750w lamps. I noticed we were burning through lamps fairly rapidly so I took a peek in the ceramic base and they looked burned in one of the pin holes so I started...

HELP! My 10x10 universal fader wing display is not functioning properly. The light is on but no labels display nor does the ETC namesake appear on boot up like the other fader wings. HOWEVER, the fader still operates the lights assigned to the sub, it just doesn't display anything. I can also...

I was afraid of that. Our managing director has decided to get in touch with our repair contact to come out and look at our racks. (Which I agree with because this is over my head)Thank you!

Also to note, I have a "Controlkeeper Lighting Control" Box by Leviton in the same room as the dimmers. But I'm not sure how to operate it and also unsure if it controls my dimmers or the worklights. I'm also unsure of what it means when it says "relay."

We're having troubles with our dimmers after the power went out. Some won't shut off, some pop on at 50% when the fader gets to 1%, and it's an issue being December when everyone and their brother put on "The Nutcracker."I've tried resetting the modules but can't find a main power switch to...

So I tried this and when I got the lights about halfway up they ran through their configuration sequence again but didn't produce any light.

We are running them through a wireless dmx box, nothing has changed with it but unfortunatley we're near an airprot so it oculd mess up if the airport takes more frequencies without notifying anyone.

I'm going to try this as well, thank you!

I'm going to have to try this, i've checked all the cables but I'll un-patch and re-patch to assure the corrective dimmers are assigned.

To clarify yes they are panning and tilting up until the point of needing control from the board. No error messages on the instrument itself. I have not tried total reset only value reset on the instrument that forced a re-cal.

I have my VariLite1000's set to turn on with the lighting board (ETC ION) lately every time the start up the do a loud configue, (horrifying sounding clicking when they move) and point as far up as they will go which is not how they are set to. I also have no control over pan/tilt or the lamp...

In my venue we have a full system with a half fly (same issue) and when we have our Nutcrackers come in what they do is have all their sceneic drops set up and when it's time to put them away they go to black out (or set a scene up in front of the mid so the mid can close) and bring the drop in...
