Hi all!

First post here, been lurking for a while...

I'm getting ready to hang my Pro1200x (replacing a Pro900x), and am curious as to whether or not I can switch this unit to 230v. I was feeding the Pro900x 230v, as it's a simple jumper change. But, the Zenith manual simply states that it's configured for 120v, and the Barco Cine 8 manual only says "Consult your dealer to switch...".

Any suggestions? (Many thanks, in advance!)

On the most barco's it's a switch (and probably a fuse) on a little subboard close to the SMPS.

On the most barco's it's a jumper (and probably a fuse) on a little subboard close to the SMPS.
Take the jumper out, rotate it and put it back in.

It is a small AC input board, beside the SMPS, not the sub board on the SMPS.

The installation manual mentions it does 120V and 240V. (That is true).

The board you want is the Main Input (R762507) board seen on the bottom of this page:

Here it is:



The red jumper wires on the right need to be adjusted. I believe it's printed right on on the circuit board beside the white connector if I'm not mistaken.

Why not just use 120 ?
