How do you know what machines I have, and how do you know Tom? I plan on asking him next time I see him, but it's not that big of a deal, and he lives 2 hours away.

On #1, I didn't even think to check the End/Break switch was on. Amazing how easy it is to overlook the simple things! Will check next time.

Thanks for your help!

Bob and Jerry, Not to be confused with Tom and Jerry or... na
You guys make me blush...Thanks..


You see Ken, We know every move you make, the "New order" will decide if the projection quality is good enough to let the Oaks operate.
Bob Marr is the figurehead and Jerry Chase is the strong arm..

Your case is pending.....................

Actualy, I have worked in the Oaks before, I use to Work for Cobb as a tech/gopher dude.... So the switch was in the bypass?

Don't know about that switch. I was off today. I'll definitely check tomorrow. What about #3?

BTW, our projectors are Kinoton. Did that company used to be Norelco?

Ken

"#3 the correct operation with disconnected status tells me that the wire that goes to the red light on the status is going to ground somewhere." That requires finding where the wire is touching something it should not.

OK. Also, #1, the End/Break switch was NOT on. The red light, on the automation and on the remote, stays on while the show is running in normal operation.

On 1 and 3, when the red light is on during a show, it is half as bright as it normally is.

Same answer for 1 and 3, when you remove the ground problem on the wire feeding the red indicator only it will clear the problem up.
