Author Topic: TI ICP card Raphael Friedland Film Handler Posts: 37 From: Raanana Israel Registered: Nov 2005 posted 11-13-2011 02:16 PM                     IS ANYBODY HAVE PROBLEMS WITH THIS CARD  |  IP: Logged Steve Guttag We forgot the crackers Gromit!!! Posts: 12814 From: Annapolis, MD Registered: Dec 1999 posted 11-13-2011 05:07 PM                     There is a known bug on the ICP if version 2.x.x of the ICP firmware was EVER on the card. Depending on projector manufacturer, there is a procedure to reflash the board and properly fix the problem. However, this would only apply if your problems are corruption related. -Steve  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 11-14-2011 06:31 AM                     BTW: According to a friend that works with BARCO in Europe... The Barco or Christie ICP solution will work just fine on the NEC ICP card. The cards and solutions are all identical.

Many topics can be addressed which is what I think is important. Without specifically addressing these concerns, we wont be successful when .... uh what was I talking about?  |  IP: Logged Steve Guttag We forgot the crackers Gromit!!! Posts: 12814 From: Annapolis, MD Registered: Dec 1999 posted 11-14-2011 07:20 PM                     I would think they would work too...however, without a baseline file, the ICP will be "empty" no PCFs, no PNGs, no TCGDs...etc. Now the NEC update program does contain some of those. Naturally, one has to fully back up their ICP BEFORE reflashing the board and hopefully NEC does indeed back up EVERYTHING when you do a back up. I see that on the newest DCC that a new button was added to the back up that seemingly does "all" -Steve  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 11-14-2011 07:38 PM                     According to my friend in Europe either the Christie or Barco methods accomplishes the same task on the very same module... Two that I updated this morning were all warm and fuzzy humming along nicely for the last 6 months with the existing version they had in them....3.0 so they are now at 3.004 which should precure any enigma issues.  |  IP: Logged Steve Guttag We forgot the crackers Gromit!!! Posts: 12814 From: Annapolis, MD Registered: Dec 1999 posted 11-14-2011 09:01 PM                     Ah...but both Christie and Barco has one replenish the board using their OWN baseline parameters...Barco has one do it via the "cloning" feature...which isn't going to work for the NEC since one can't get to the NEC via the Barco communicator. I know that if I couldn't recover the NEC with what I did...I was willing to try one of the Recovery packages...what would I have to lose? The projector was down! Still, NEC needs to have one of their own. -Steve  |  IP: Logged Jonathan Althaus Master Film Handler Posts: 435 From: Bedford, TX Registered: Dec 2008 posted 11-15-2011 08:54 AM                     ICP-I Cause Problems  |  IP: Logged Raphael Friedland Film Handler Posts: 37 From: Raanana Israel Registered: Nov 2005 posted 11-15-2011 11:15 AM                     Thank you guys for your respond My main problem is with Christie 2210  |  IP: Logged Carsten Kurz Film God Posts: 4340 From: Cologne, NRW, Germany Registered: Aug 2009 posted 11-15-2011 01:30 PM                     Great. Now try again and tell us WHAT the problem is you are having with the ICP on a Christie 2210. - Carsten  |  IP: Logged Eric Robinson Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 538 From: Santa Rosa, CA Registered: Jan 2005 posted 11-15-2011 04:01 PM                     Yes Carsten is right. I think it goes something like this: 1) Statement of problem a) Description of problem i) Signs, symptoms, effects of problem ii) Example, narrative, or testimony Then... we Filmtechers chime in with... 2) Statement of solution a) Description of solution i) How solution fits problem ii) Example 3) How solution can be implemented a) Plan of action i) Step 1 of plan ii) Step 2 of plan iiii) Step 3 of plan iiiii) Step 4 of plan etc. 4) Try the suggested solutions 5) Check to see if solution worked...if not GOTO step 1.  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 11-15-2011 06:29 PM                     Eric... You forgot to include which crow bar, sledge hammer and blow torch to have handy when doing the ICP repair... That is extremely important! Just sayin...  |  IP: Logged Eric Robinson Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 538 From: Santa Rosa, CA Registered: Jan 2005 posted 11-16-2011 12:09 AM                     I always use an ESD safe crowbar.  |  IP: Logged Steve Guttag We forgot the crackers Gromit!!!

The thread discontinuity part...where someone (could even be me) will bring up something completely unrelated to the original question that sends the thread in a completely different direction!
