Our school has a Bijou Ver 2.11 lighting board. The lights blink as if an effect is engaged; however, all of them have been deleted, as well as cues and macros. At no time is any of this blinking seen on the monitor. I turned off everything--Grand Master, turned on Blackout, and turned off power at back, but one light would come on. I did this several times and each time a different light would come on. Finally all lights went off. I have cleaned the Dimmer Rack filters. We found, by accident, the power pack had melted to the table and that has been replaced but the flashing continued. The flashing begins after the board has been on about 15 minutes. The board has been looked at and nothing was found to be wrong. We think there is a problem with a dimmer or dimmers; however, none are flipped and all the green lights are on. I have an Electronics Diversified MX remote/tester. It hooks into the Dimmer Rack via a telephone jack hook-up. (Honestly, I don't know what it is. I was handed it when the system was put in.) The User's Manual is missing (several changes in administration). I don't know how to use this to check anything and I think if I did, I could find the problem. The electrician doesn't know how to use it either. I can't find a manual on-line. The box has Backup, Patch A, Patch B, Setup, Level up and Level down, S2, Dimmer up and Dimmer down, Clear, In2, In1, S1, Unity and a numeric pad.
I am at my wits' end and the electrician and I have been working on this since school started--five weeks ago. We have a rental this weekend and several coming up. The electrician took his knife and flipped something to make all lights come on Full; this can't be good.
Any help, guidance, anything would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
