Time for a new LED.You can buy the whole bracket/LED assembly or just the LED itself. Although the LED only option is much cheaper you might as well get the whole bracket. It's a lot less trouble. Done properly, you can change out the thing in about 15 minutes or so. If you went the cheaper LED only route you'd have to take the time to diassemble the thing, line it up correctly and reassemble it. (Don't forget heat sink compound!) No matter which route you take it's a pretty routine job.

I'd suspect that you aren't getting good digital tracking and the "found on the first pass" leds are flickering up a storm.It it time for a new LED for your reader. BTW, the voltage levels are not the same for the Cat. 700 reader with the EPT lamp (or the Cat. 699 for that matter)...the incandescent lamps have a much wider range than the LED version...they run lower and still track and they optimize at about 4.5Vp-p rather than 4. They are also cheaper to run and anybody can replace the lamp. Steve ------------------ "Old projectionists never die, they just changeover!"
