Title: Bad Triac? And Wireless firmware help
Post by: abell on November 28, 2014,

I'm almost done setting up the show, and I have two (hopefully simple) questions.

1. On my LE v3.0 channel constantly runs, no matter what...

I think the TRIAC needs replaced... I swapped out the 6pin chip and nothing changed, so now I think its the TRIAC. Should I go ahead and tear it apart to replace it?

2. I put a daughter card on an old LE v3.0 and Wireless DMX did not work, I am thinking the firmware from long ago, doesn't have the wireless portion added. I have all the components to update the chip. I just want to share my thoughts before I go try and update that stuff.

Thoughts?

I cant speak for the wireless, but I know that in my experience, constant on is most likely the triac. they aren't that bad to replace if you have a desoldering iron.

I reflashed the LE and it works now.

I also replaced the TRIAC and it's perfect!
