Author Topic: make-up table stuck on high speed Ramin Hashemi Expert Film Handler Posts: 129 From: Houston TX Registered: Sep 2004 posted 09-17-2004 09:14 PM                     My Christee make up table is stuck on high speed. This is during breakdown and buildup, so I am thinking it must be the card. Anyone have any idea. thanks Ramin PS, I did replace the card, and all is well now. thanks Ramin [ 09-18-2004, 04:51 PM: Message edited by: Ramin Hashemi ]  |  IP: Logged Tony Bandiera Jr Film God Posts: 3067 From: Moreland Idaho Registered: Apr 2004 posted 09-17-2004 09:25 PM                     Ramin: Yep, sounds like the control card has shorted out. Some more info if you please: Is it for Autowind 2 or Autowind 3? (They are NOT interchangeable) Look under the table, is it the round control board? Or is it the way old style with the platter deck control cards under the front panel? Is the MUT cable and platter receptacle in good condition? Has anyone tried to put a new screw in the MUT's cable connector cover? (I've had these short out in a few cases.) That info would help us to help you!  |  IP: Logged Ramin Hashemi Expert Film Handler Posts: 129 From: Houston TX Registered: Sep 2004 posted 09-18-2004 04:10 PM                     It is an Autowind 3 with a round control card. I am not sure what a MNT cable is, but everything looks ok. Could it be the high and low pots on the control card, and if so ho do I adjust them. thanks for your help Ramin  |  IP: Logged
