Christie Series 2 TPC issues

[Steve Guttag]

I'm seeing a trend on the Christie S2 projectors that we support. If one power cycles the projector (full power off, not just going to standby), the TPC (Touch Panel Controller) may not power back on. If one power cycles the system again (sometimes multiple times) it boots back up. Once booted, it behaves.

Changing the battery, flash card and even the Standby supply itself (which also powers the PIB and parts of the EVB) has not improved things.

Have any of you all come across this issue (yet)? It is feeling like a capacitor issue (like we've run into on the Crown DSi amplifiers...though that one as induced by the capacitor's location an proximity to heat). Have any of you come up with repairs for them?

I have this problem on several projectors. In order to make the touch panel start, what I do is disconnect its cable and reconnect it. but so far Christie hasn't given me a solution either.
