I have recently acquired a SS-24. Upon powering it up and trying to use it I am getting no DMX output from the board itself. I've hooked it upto a dimmer pack and shows when it has DMX signal received and it does not show anything. When the dimmer pack it hooked upto another board it works just fine (thus eliminating a bad dimmer pack). I am curious as to why the SS-24 may no have any DMX output.
The previous user had the wrong power supply in the case. We've changed it out to a 12v 800ma supply. Is this a potential problem? User manual says to use a 12v 500ma; however on the board itself it says 500ma minimal. Would this be the cause of no DMX output?
Is there a way to do a master reset on the board? Maybe the board it setup for MIDI output instead of DMX (don't know if this is even possible)?
Anyone have any other idea's? This board was donated to us by a local production company for our new church and they stated it was a backup board for them and has seen very little use. He did state that it worked fine last time they had it out.
Appreciate any help! Thanks!
