Well, as a mater of fact. This is not exactly the interface board we are using. The relays it is using is one for the C.O. (dowser open and close), another for the exciter and another for the motor (and only the motor) witch we use to fold the film back to the platter when we turn off the lamp by the "motor off" command. Yet, the relay for the exciter will not turn off the xenon lamp when it is on session.
If I use the relays in the board witch gives power to the lamp house, the automation, the sound console etc in order to cut off the lamp with the rest of the automation on, then the alarm will go on because of the "xenon failure" it detected.
If I turn off the automation as well, I am in the same position.
So, is there a way to wire around this lock between the lamp and the motor?
It takes a technician's expertise to do the work, or is there a way to make my life easier by my self?
(please, be patient with my lack of eloquence as well as any of misunderstandings, as the technical terms may be used differently, or my knowledge might be insufficient)
Anyway, Steve, Brad, thanks for your good will to assist.
