English version
7. TROUBLESHOOTING
No Light
If the light effect does not operate properly, refer
servicing to a technician. Suspect three potential
problem areas as: the power supply, the splitter,
the fuse.
1) Power supply. Check that the unit is plugged into
an appropriate power supply.
2) The splitter. Return Navigator Split RDM to your
dealer.
3) The fuse. Replace the fuse. See Replace fuse sec-
tion for replacing the fuse.
4) If all of the above appears to be O.K., plug the
unit in again.
5) If you are unable to determine the cause of the
problem, do not open the Navigator Split RDM, as
this may damage the unit and the warranty will
become void.
6) Return the device to your dealer.
No Response to DMX
Suspect the DMX cable or connectors, a distributor
malfunction, a controller malfunction, a light effect
DMX card malfunction.
1) Check the DMX setting. Make sure that DMX ad-
dresses are correct.
2) Check the DMX cable: Unplug the unit; change
the DMX cable; then reconnect to electrical power.
Try your DMX control again.
3) Determine whether the distributor, controller or
light effect is at fault. If the distributor or controller
does not operate properly, take the distributor or
controller in for repair. Otherwise, take the DMX
cable and the light effect to a qualified technician.
