Express Console Freezing/Losing DMX

There have been a few times lately that the ETC Express 24/48 would randomly (and i really mean randomly) just freeze itself up and not be able to go into any menus, run cues or do anything.  When this happens it loses DMX completely and I have to shut it off and turn it back on.  Has this happened to anyone else? Or does anyone know what the problem might be?

Thanks

  • Have just had this happen to our console. 3 times in a week, and never before.
    The level of the gooseneck lights doesn't seem to make a difference, and it hasn't happened when the diskette drive is in use. Is it possible there's a cause other than power supply failure?

    The thing that is different on this show is the amount of cheap LED fixtures on universe 2. Troubleshooting currently to see if they are somehow causing issues, but hard to tell with intermittent failures.

    Thank you for any available thoughts,
