TIP: If you must restart your server, be sure that your projector is powered on. There is some negotiation between the projector and the server through the ethernet link that may cause you to not have any picture.

Note: Please don't post any other comments, flames or whatever in this thread unless it relates to the DOREMI server and the provides tips to other users. After all, even though this doesn't relate to film, it does provide help to others that project digitally.

Hi Everybody,

I had a issue with my doremi server. It cannot power on. I try swap the power supply to other server and the server can on. Is anyone know what the problem is? Maybe cause by mother board or else?

Thanx

Mr Wan

The server is basically a commodity Intel based computer, the media block is the only "special" part.
They actually turn on from the motherboard: the power supply always supplies some power - the ethernet ports should be active whenever the power supplies are plugged in for instance. When you press the "ON" switch (this is connected to the motherboard, not the PSU) the motherboard asks the power supplies to fully power up.
So if your PS units work in another server it's probably the main board.
Do you have the Intel or Supermicro version? Supermicro boards have been super reliable for me so far, while the Intel ones are getting rather old and I've seen a few failures.
However: if you only swapped the plug-in power supply modules you may have a wiring problem between the power supply housing (that those modules plug into) and the rest of the system. I would open up the chassis and unplug/replug the cables from the power supply area to the motherboard. Also the cable from the power switch to the motherboard.
