Author Topic: Smart's Showmation Software Don Furr Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 509 From: Sun City, Ca USA Registered: Nov 2002 posted 06-24-2014 09:06 PM                     I've got a Showmation with a Ver. 3.30 (2003) software which I'm assuming is a earlier version from the 4.0 version. The main difference is being able to select "latch" or "pulse" on several functions. Can anyone verify if in fact the dip switches on the 3.30 won't allow me to change from latch to pulse? Wow, where is Oscar when you need him?  |  IP: Logged Oscar Neundorfer Master Film Handler Posts: 275 From: Senoia, GA Registered: May 2000 posted 06-26-2014 06:06 PM                        Still here lurking about. It has been 10 years,Don! I do not remember the changes. I also do not remember changing latch/pulse settings. Just try it and see what happens.  |  IP: Logged Don Furr Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 509 From: Sun City, Ca USA Registered: Nov 2002 posted 06-26-2014 09:03 PM                     Great to hear from you Oscar!! To be completely safe I simply wired the Kinoton to the switches bypassing the automation so I'm using the lens change and douser switches on the Showmastion as pulse switches. Works just fine. The motor switch is a latch action so I was safe with that one.  |  IP: Logged Louis Bornwasser Film God Posts: 4441 From: prospect ky usa Registered: Mar 2005 posted 06-26-2014 11:27 PM                        Good to see you, Oscar. You always were the saving grace of that outfit.  |  IP: Logged
