We have a 4 channel Smart Bar dimmer in our booth and recently it has taken to ghosting on us . . to make matters worse (unlike when the D20's ghost) the Smart Bar does NOT eventually go out . .
anyway to stop this behavior . . .
thanks . .

it seems to be a "no DMX" issue .. very low level .. maybe 1% enough to make the filaments glow but not enough to emit light from the fixture. . .
I actually thought we solved this problem last year when I first posted but it's back . .

Hey Paul,
You mention that this bar is in your booth - what type of load is it running (tungsten lamps, LEDs, compact fluorescent, etc)? And what wattage?
SCR dimmers inherently have a lower limit of loads below which they don't run reliably - I am wondering if this is what you are seeing..
