ID this lamphouse?

[Mark Ogden]

This is not a good pic but I was hoping somebody could ID the lamp house and the wattage lamps it was designed for. Thanks!

Judging by the volt and amp meter on the rear it's a late model 4 to 6 kw Xetron. It is also the same color as the Xetron consoles I installed in a new build in Greenwood, Indiana back in the very early 2000's.

I saw that problem on the bench when I was inspecting it before the film opened and warned Paramount about it DTS was quick to issue a software upgrade that extended the "free-roll time" (without timecode) to 8 or 10 seconds. I'm guessing that site didn't get the software upgraded.
