OT - Scroller problem

Sorry for the off topic post but you all are the smartest lighting folks on the planet...no really. I have an Apollo color scroller that is just scrolling, non stop, from one end of the scroll to the other. All of the other DMX *(upstream and downstream of the problem) on the position is functioning, the run is terminated. I have tried repatching the fixture and scroller (as a compound fixture). Even unpatched the scroller keeps going. Any suggestions? I appreciate the help!

  • Sounds like the scroller is stuck in perpetual reset. I have some possessed Chroma-Q's that can do this if the optical sensor is dirty and/or tension is set wrong. Which vintage of Apollo is this? At one point they may have been OEM'ing the same product.

    If 'twere me I would contact the good folks at Apollo or post it on controlbooth.com. Kelite (a.k.a Keith) works for Apollo and is a frequent contributor.
