Hello All,
Rogue R2 Wash is a valuable addition to rental and production inventories. Durable and dependable, this moving wash workhorse produces a bright, powerful light and offers five zones of LED control to pixel map its 19 (15 W) RGBW quad-LEDs. A standout zoom range of 12° to 49° gives it the spread to cover even the largest areas.
I just inherited a whole slew of instruments with lots of problems, so I was able to fix most of them, but a few problems are still confounding me.
I have a Mac 2000 Profile that has suddenly decided it no longer wants to pan for me. The motors vibrate upon startup but will not home the instrument and once it is up and running I cannot manually pan from the manual controls as well. There is nothing physically preventing the head from panning as it swings freely when there is no power to the instrument. The pan motors have power going to them as they are energized and providing resistance when the instrument is powered up. They just won't tell it to move. If you give the head a nudge it will sometimes pan by itself for a little bit during the initial homing sequence. So far I have done the following:
Swapped out the PCB with a known good board to make sure it wasn't just a logic error.
Tested the wire looms for shorts to the Pan motors as well as to the Pan sensor.
Cleaned out the pan sensor.
Examined the Pan sensor wheel for broken teeth.
Removed PAN belt to see if the motors would act normal with no resistence on them. They did.
I am just kind of at an impasse now.
