Just to spread the wisdom around, substitute lamps may cause more work than necessary.

 

I ordered MSD 250/2's from a vendor, and they suggested ASD 250/2's because the MSD 250/2's were on back-order. I approved it, and the order was shipped. Three days later, I've got (2) of them that won't lamp back on after striking only once. I've got (1) that exploded in a fixture, and I've got (2) that don't strike upon initial lamp-on.

 

If you were ever wondering about using substitutes-- don't use 'em.

Anyone out there an expert on streaming ACN/e1.31? I need some guidance/have some questions for creating a large network with more than 16 universes.

From Karl Ruling at ESTA:


Draft Guide for Luminaire Inspection Now Available for Review
BSR E1.32 - 201x, Guide for the Inspection of Entertainment Industry Luminaires, is available for public review at http://www.esta.org/tsp/documents/public_review_docs.php through 25 October 2010. The document is intended to provide guidance in the inspection of stage and studio luminaires used in the entertainment industry to evaluate their safety and any needed maintenance. An employer could write his own safety inspection procedures from scratch as part of his duty to provide a safe workplace, but borrowing from or adopting the final version of this document might be easier and lead to a better set of procedures.

The public review is over when the "Review End Date" shown on the website of October 26, 2010 starts. Comments should be submitted before then.

Reviewers also are requested to look for protected intellectual property in the document. ESTA does not intend to adopt any standard that requires the use of protected intellectual property, unless the use of that property is essential for technical reasons, and can be licensed and used by anyone without prejudice or preference for a reasonable fee. If any protected intellectual property is seen in the document, reviewers are asked to point it out in their comments.

Hi Marshall and welcome to the group. The meter I have is a Fluke 43B. It's a single-phase meter with display that shows the waveforms and measures voltage, current, power, power factor, harmonic distortion, and more. Steve Terry from ETC suggested that the three-phase meter was a better choice so you could monitor all three phases plus the neutral at once. But they cost over $5K. I paid $2K for the 43B and it's worth every bit of that.

Morning Richard. What exactly is that quality meter brand/model#?. I have to get one. Having just joined, I look forward to all correspondence. Thanks, Marshall Sweeten

Hey Richard, been off sunning myself and just got hold of this thread. That will be a handy meter for film techs.....300 Image 80s later at a power factor correction of 1.7.....

Interested to see the results also Richard, with every new invention comes the mysterious harmonic effect....
