Acrobat..stuck and will only display one gobo...any ideas or suggestions before I open it up and do something stupid?

And yes, I've checked all the dip switches and they are set at what they need to be.

Thanks.

Open it up and do something stupid. It's one of two things:

1) It's stuck on a mechanical level (which should be an easy fix)

2) It's stuck on a computer chip level (which won't be so easy)

It's more than likely a mechanical issue... as Fuzzy mentions... unless you've burnt the control board or other electronic item... which is less likely.

Hey Kirb, were you using the acrobat at the wedding when the outage occurred?

It's probably trashed now. Send it to me and I'll give you $10 for it.

Nope, this occured last week and I just got around to checking it out the other day. I figured that a dip switch or two might have been jostled, but alas that wasn't the case.:sqembarrassed:

It's stuck on the "white cheerios" pattern...:sqerr:

I'm sure the warranty is no good, open it already.
