I am the Worship director at a smaller church. I just finished changing all of our lighting from halogen to LED - replacing a Colortran ENR system (that was a LOT of work to remove, and now I have to figure out how to get rid of all the old equipment!). I did pretty much all the work myself, including removing the old fixtures and wiring up the new ones, building DMX over Cat5 cable, and running the cable.
Anyway, I replaced our 20 500W halogen house lights with ADJ COB Canon Wash ST fixtures. I am super happy with them - gone are the hot spots we had with the old fixtures, and I love being able to change the color of the house lights too.
Now on to the problem. I have 5 rows of fixtures, each row with a separate DMX channel. I noticed on Sunday that one of the lights in a row changed color randomly. I had them set to an orange, and one light briefly switched to red for a few seconds, and then back again. Is this a faulty fixture, or maybe a cable? or is it just a fluke. Our control board is an ETC ColorSource 40.
Either way its going to be a pain to get up there - I had to rent a 30ft boom lift to reach these lights.
