    Intercom over 4-pin?

    Their intercom was stolen a few years back. There was no patch bay that I could find, but its still possible, I didn't manage to find a building wiring diagram for comm. They didn't have any headsets to test it with, so I didn't have the chance to just plug one in.How recent of a change is...

    Intercom over 4-pin?

    I was recently working in a theater that had its intercom walk away on them a few years back, and ever since have been using varying combinations of phones and two way radios to communicate. So naturally, I set out to discover what it would take to put in a new comm system, and in my search I...

    Intercom Issues

    Ok, this was the problem that we had, and we are now in the process of inventorying all out headsets, and fixing the broken ones. Thanks everyone for the help, it saved me many hours of problem solving.

    Intercom Issues

    That might be the issue, a lot of our headsets lately haven't been working, so that would make sense, if we happen to be testing it with a headset that doesn't work.

    Intercom Issues

    kfox, I'll try that and get back to you, but the rack is pretty mobile, we move it around a couple times a year, and the problem occurs everywhere we use it.

    Intercom Issues

    I'm not sure on the model, I'll check next time I get a chance. It's not an issue with the cable, I've tried multiple packs on the same cable, and gotten some that work and some that don't, plus when daisy chaining them, one will not work, and then one further down the chain will work just fine.

    Intercom Issues

    OK, I really hate to bump threads, but I've waited about a month and have 2800 views and no replies, does anybody know what could cause this, I really need these packs working by mid February, does anybody know?

    Questions about college interviews

    I have a couple of college interviews coming up for their theater programs, and have some questions about it, and thought that this would probably be a pretty good place to ask. 1. I plan on constructing a portfolio to present and in it I would show different things I've down, however, I'm...

    Intercom Issues

    Recently we've been having issues with our intercom system, and among many problems, one of the biggest has to do with our wired packs. We have a Telex system with the two channel wired packs, however, with probably over half the packs, whenever you hit the talk button it will change the...

    Wiring a source four

    Actually both of the contact wires came out of the socket, not just one, and yes the two wires are black, don't know enough about types of wire to be more specific.

    Wiring a source four

    Yes, I do mean the lamp base, thanks for the quick reply. To replace that would I just have to replace the lamp base, or would I have to replace the whole end cap? And where would be a good place to get the replacement parts, would a local shop carry it or would it be better to order it online?

    Wiring a source four

    I was trying to get one of our source fours working today, and after going through and checking everything that could be wrong, discovered that the wiring had come loose from the socket. How do you reattach the wires to the socket, can you solder it in, or can you use pressure from the pins...

    High End Color Command

    I used a few of them last year in a production, they performed nicely, the beam angle is fairly small, smaller than I accounted for, but you said you looked at that already so that shouldn't be an issue. and like soundman said, getting them to address properly was a pain, but that could have...

    Hey all

    Hey all, I'm new to the board here, found it while searching around online, and also that there is a lot of information on here, and a lot of intelligent people that can help when help is needed. I'm a high school student, focusing mostly on lighting design. Working with a colortran innovator...
