We have a Philips Strand Palette VL 16 that has trouble booting up...every time we power on it lands on a screen that says DigitalEngine...we have to force power off around 4-5 times before it boots correctly. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!
Thanks for letting me join this group! I work at a small HS with an app. 500 seat auditorium. The lighting system is about 35 years old and in need of improvement. I am not a lighting specialist, just a music teacher helping out.

Since my recent foray into lighting I have always been interested by the earlier etc and strand consoles (particularly the light palettes and microvision). To my frustration I haven't been able to find any for sale. Could anyone point me on the right direction?
Hello all,
My Strand 550i recently started having issues where it wouldn't detect the video card / Strand daughter board. I decided to test out a different motherboard, which was a Pentium III (the original was a Pentium II), everything seemed to work fine with the new motherboard, the console...
Hey All,
So I've got two different Strand 6x12s, one marked 6x12L with a slightly longer body and one marked as a normal 6x12. Do these fixtures have different photometrics? Just trying to wrap my head around how to use these best but can't find any documentation. Any info documents would be...

Hi all,

Hello All,
