6 Alarms and Troubleshooting
Warning. No user controls or user serviceable parts are located inside the Redback
Wallmount Dimmer. Refer all servicing to suitably qualified personnel.
6.1 MAINTENANCE
Ensure that the air vents at the top, bottom and front of the frame are free from dust.
Check that all connector screw terminal are tight. This must be performed by a suitably
qualified person.
Check that the Redback contains the latest software release.
6.2 ALARMS
The [Status] button at the bottom of the LCD “Home Screens” indicates the following:
 P1, P2, P3 show the presence of the input power phases. Flashing Red is not
present.
 DMX shows the presence of a DMX control signal. Flashing Red is not present.
 Temperature. There is a separate temperature sensor for each bank of 6 dimmers.
The display shows the highest temperature from all of the sensors. If the
temperature of the Redback Wallmount is too high, the temperature display on the
LCD will flash Red and ALL OUTPUT from the Redback is automatically switched OFF.
Either reduce the load or increase the cooling to reduce the temperature. When the
temperature returns to normal, the Redback automatically returns to normal
operation.
6.3 TROUBLE SHOOTING
If a channel is not working check the MCB (Miniature Circuit Breaker) for that channel.
If the MCB has tripped (OFF), firstly try to determine the cause of the breaker tripping. It
could be a blown lamp or a circuit overload. Rectify to problem (replace the lamp or reduce
the load) then restore the MCB. If the MCB continues to trip, refer the problem to a suitably
qualified person.
6.3.1 Rigger Test
You can test the operation of a dimmer channel from the “Riggers Control” on the LCD
touch screen. See section 4.4.1.
6.3.2 DMX Control
If the dimmer is working from the Riggers Control but not via DMX, check that the dimmer
is patched to the correct DMX slot and correctly configured for DMX control. See sections
4.8 and 4.9.4
6.3.3 Wallplate Control
If the dimmer is working from the Riggers Control but not via Wallplate memories:
 Check that the dimmer is correctly configured for Memory control. See section 4.9.4
 Test the memory by fading it in using the LCD touch screen. See section 4.7.2.
 Check that the Wallplate is connected and correctly configured. See section 5.
