Hi, i just just bought a Barco Cine 6 that came with the new style barco remote.
It was working perfectly until this morning, i was using it to adjust the picture when suddently the red backlight started flashing and then turned completely off.
i have tried to connect it with the wire/cord with no luck Crying or Very sad

Has this happened to anyone else, and does anyone know how i can fix it?

Thanks Very Happy

Wow, that's rare. Barco remotes are usually so reliable.

Take the battery out, let it sit for 10 minutes and put the battery back in. See if it comes back to life. If not, I might be able to repair it.

Change battery and set remote to address 0. Does this also apply to the cine 6 ?

Q: My Barco remote has stopped working, what has happened?
A: If it happened after you changed the battery (or removed the battery), the remote needs to be set-up to control the projector. The Barco remotes can control multiple projectors in a chain using addresses. The projector can be set to respond to a certain address only, using the dip switch's on the controller, what has been set does not matter as all projectors will respond to address 000. On the remote between the Adjust and Standby buttons is a recessed button you can press with a pen, press it and then press the 0 digit on the remote. The remote is now set to projector address 000 and the projector will now respond regardless to the actual address its set to. Alternately you can press the recessed button on the remote while aimed at the projector or screen and the projector will display its address (or bring up the Barco information screen from the menu to view the address), then proceed by pressing those numbers in sequence on the remote i.e. if the projector displays address 025 press 0 then 2 then 5 on the remote and it will be set to control a projector with that address, either way the remote will work again.

Seems like my Barco remotes deplete battery's even when not in use....
