I could use some help troubleshooting this one-

I have a Barco 1209 that, after about an hour and a half of use this afternoon, stopped projecting a picture. I cycled the power on the projector, and that restored the picture, but it switched off again after a minute or two of use. What could be causing this?

Check the red light on the EHT board. CHances are the HV is shutting down. Bad EHT board, quadrupler or splitter if that's the case.

When I lose the picture, the red LED comes on- that's a fault indicator, correct?

Correct. If you have no spares, then send me your EHT board and quad, and I'll test them here. It can be the splitter as well, but that requires unsoldering.

I swapped out the EHT, and it seems to have been the solution. I haven't pushed it too hard yet- I probably won't know for sure until tomorrow.

Thank you!
