I'm sorry, I should've been more clear. I indeed do shut off the lamp before turning off the breakers. The interval that I'm pondering is the time between when the lamp is doused and when the fans turn off (when the breakers are turned off). Our Coemar LXs and MAC 600s both have fans...

How long should I allow moving lights to cool down, before shutting off their power? I was taught (by someone who honestly wouldn't know) that a minute or two is all that is necessary. We use Coemar ProSpot 250 LXs and Martin MAC 600s. I read both manuals just now, and saw no reference to a cool...

The MSDS lists the ingredients as water and glycerol.

The Neutrons have a built-in self damaging system, though the user can opt to damage it manually. Either way, the Neutron will be fully damaged 64% faster than it's competitors. :lol: I don't know if yours was affected by the Rosco fluid or not. I highly recommend you use only the LeMaitre...

That fix was also recommended to me by the guy I talked to at LeMaitre, though I didn't try it.

The Neutron can only use LeMaitre's Neutron fluid.

I assume you have a Neutron? You have my deepest sympathy. Not long ago I touted my approval of our Neutron - right before it failed again. The thermocouple detached from the straight tube, and the bridge (whatever that is) had to be replaced as well. What we've spent on repairs and rentals the...

I don't have much to contribute to this thread (imagine that!), but we may face the same issue down the road. Eventually we'll add DMX motion lights and a new console to one of our rooms currently served by Leprecon multiplex dimmers and console. The budget being what it is, I doubt we'll get...

Our Neutron failed again. It was remarkably clean. The output just trailed off to nothing, then the LED flashed with an error code. The thermocouple became detached from the haze tube. At least, that's the problem I noticed. Who knows, there could be more. It's at Tulsa Scenic over the weekend...

A little digging turned up this: Software versions can be found here.

I perused my copy of the manual and found no entry for such an error. Best of luck!

Thanks for your help thus far. I neglected to detail a few things. For the most part, I program, patch, install, service, and generally oversee all our lighting systems on campus, and train most of the operators. At service time, various people will operate a board, some of whom I've trained...

Two of my NSI 7536 consoles have been commandeered by the Nightmare production team for the remainder of the month, perhaps longer. In exchange for one of them, they've offered an NSI Melange. Has anybody used one of these? I don't need too much from it, just a few scenes and half a dozen...

Our 360Q 6x9's do well with GLA lamps. We use them for front light at about an 18 foot throw, and never need to come up over 60% on the fader. We previously used Eiko FLKs, which seem brighter, but cheaply built and short-lived. Is it standard practice to program wearing white cotton gloves...

We've owned the property for seven or eight years. We've previously used it for a kids classroom, then it was vacant for the last year or so. I'm not sure who the building's previous owner was, or their use for it. Our property comprises 6 total buildings over 25 acres. One building was...
