hi guys,
so my theatre has an old problem but it finally became a problem i want to solve. whats happening is circuit (not sure if that is the right name) to the lights are starting to stop working. at first i didnt know if it was a dimmer problem, board problem, fixture, or circuit problem. i switch boards, and fixture and still have the bad circuits. i finally got the chance to check the dimmer and they seemed fine, so i pulled a dimmer that knew worked and swapped it with one that wasnt and it still didnt work. now i am left to assume that it is the line going from the light to the dimmer. what i have been doing in the past is running a cable form a free dimmer but now we are running out of dimmers. so if you guys have any thoughts on what could be causing it i would much appreciate the advise. oh and our theatre is only 5 to 6 years old.
thanks
giovanni
