Hey @Michael Dimsey , I would check number 5 board. That board would be the PCB with 7 Drivers Located towards the LED Source. It should have a sticker labeled HY1324/5U01, or the board should have a PCB1127-0-C. That fan should go to that board and connected to 5JB1. I would just follow that connection to the fan.

Hello All, While I am a electronics technician, I have no experience with production lighting or LED systems as I am more of an amp guy. I recently purchased 8 old Elation/Alkalite TP-81 Intelligent LED Color Systems ( Link ) and a few 575E AT moving head lights at a liquidation sale for a local production company. Literally everything has 1 or two issues, but almost all of the TP-81sblow the 2A GMA fuse at power on. I am guessing this must have been a common issue with these because they...

We are currently using ShowXpress software so I am having to build my own profiles for all my new Elation lights. I am looking for a list of all the 64 Color Presets to properly name them, as well as the 13 Color Macros. I've searched on here as well as Google and haven't been able to locate the information. Thanks

Hello, I'm wondering if anyone has a fixture profile for an American DJ Focus Spot 3 light, or know of another profile that is already in the SD2 profiles folder, that will work with this fixture. The fixture has both an 18 and 21 channel DMX mode, while the SD2 only has 16 and 24, neither of which have worked with this light. I am using a closed government network so I'm not able to download and use the fixture profile creator that I've seen mentioned on other threads. Thank you for your...

I'm designing a 4D simulation using an Alcorn McBride V16 Pro as the base controller. For the lights, the V16 has MIDI out which I'm sending to an SD2 lighting board. The issue is that the MIDI format is different than standard MIDI. Does anyone know any workarounds for this? Particularly if you've had experience using WinScript to program MIDI cues. I don't know if there is a way for the MIDI message to automatically convert to Elation's format or if there is a specific I/O or variable I...

Hello, Can anybody help me locate g5UFAN1? My fixture is showing an error and I would like to try to replace the fan. Thank you!

Greetings unfortunately this is a very old unit and literature is no longer available. I would look at the toroidal transformer, im willing to bet its shorting out. FYI we no longer have parts available as well.

Thank you. I will take a resistance measurement from one of the functional units and see if I can find a suitable replacement.

Good morning, i will refer this one to our show designer engineer Ken. it may take a day or so, just an fyi

The SD2 uses standard MIDI continuous controller messages to trigger scenes. As long as you can generate those from you software you should be able to create cues. The SD2 manual has a page that shows how to make the message. Controller messages work better than notes for this controller due to the large number of scene slots.

greetings please send profile request for the show designer 2 to support at elationlighting.com

Hello, we actually do have a profile online for this fixture, you can download it here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/9vwp...a/FOCUSSP3Z.sdf?dl=0 This profile is for 18ch mode.

I have two problematic fixtures that I ordered replacement parts for per the recommendation of one of Elations Service employees. Since then, they have arrived, I've replaced the parts, both fixtures are still not working and that person in the service department has not replied to me for weeks. Wondering what I need to do to get in touch with someone that can help. Thanks in advance.

Greetings , please forward me your correspondence so i can review asap.. please forward to Parts@elationlighting dot com.

Hi, I recently got back to my Winter job and found that our Show Designer 1 is inoperative. When I tried to turn the power switch on or off the blue LCD screen flashes for a second then goes blank. Nothing is operative on the board, no lights (LED) or anything. Is there a method of restoring to factory? Or is this a failure that needs a factory repair (RMA)? How do I contact Elation for an RMA ans shipping instructions? Thanks for the assist in advance. SquireDude

I recently bought Elation Event Cylinders with built in Wireless DMX. Everything seems to work fine with this exception: I cannot connect my DMX transmitter to the units. I've tried every mode and variation I can find. Elation support was unable to help. Does anyone have knowledge of these units? I appreciate any assistance. Thank you!

It's not elation. It is Haotao. Pic attached shows specs.

If it’s not using a “wireless solutions” card then it’s not compatible.

What brand of transmitter are you using

Hey everyone, I am working with six different LED Spot II moving head fixtures, and they are all having the same issue. They will randomly lock up and not respond to any DMX control signals. The only way to fix it is with either a power cycle, or to wait until the fixture automatically does a fixture reset. After which, everything is back to normal until it locks up again. It only seems to effect the LED II fixtures, and not our LED III fixtures. Is this a common issue? Is there a way to fix...

Greetings, can you please email me at gines dot gines at elationlighting dot com. please confirm the model as well as currently serial number they are on.

Hi - I'm using a Martin M2GOHD - which I understand is now supported by Elation who market the controller as the NX2? I am seeking fixture profiles for a number of Martin fixtures: Martin ELP CL LED profile Martin Rush Par3 RGB Martin Rush Batten 1 Hex I can't find fixture profile downloads on the Elation webiste or anywhere else? Any pointers please on this would be greatly appreciated ASAP as I am on a very tight schedule to get the show programmed and would rather avoid having to create...

Hi, try the obsidian website. It’s all in the 4.4 download. www.obsidiancontrol.com

Thank you so much for the swift reply - really appreciate it. The M2GOHD desk I have inheritted is running M-Series software 3.70.885.0 which as far as I can tell is the last M-Series OS version released? I am extremely nervous about trying to change this to Onyx at this stage. We are a community organisation and were donated the desk 'as is' and don't have the funds or the knowledge to start getting into OS upgrades.😕 On the Obsidian Control website (great tip thank you) however I did find...

Hi, all you need to do is place the .EXE installer onto a USB stick, plug it into the console and run the fixture library update from the settings menu on the console. You cannot import individual fixtures from the exe, you need to let it update the whole library. This is the way it has always been done.

Thank you so much - managed to get to the Fixture LIbrary update via the Tools menu and worked a treat! Really appreciate the swift advice! Thank you too for replying to my other post re. training - will give the FB group a try. Cheers,
