Can anyone give us a clue as to what would be throwing this error. It suggests that there is a lens removed but they are all secure along with having the grounding wire attached.

I was trying to help my buddy over the phone but ran out of options.

Thanks!

Doc

Check that the connector's other end is plugged into the PA board properly. Make sure there;s a screw through each of the grounding lugs on the lens. If the screw is missing, chances are there's no connection to ground out each of those lens wires.

Otherwise there's probably some rare fault on the PA board causing a false 25 error.

Thanks Curt!!

I'll try to swing by there tomorrow and have a look at things. This guy is pretty sharp with when it comes to audio, but his brain falls out of his ass when it comes to projectors!!!

Geez Doc, another lens error...... Did you learn from the last one? Laughing

I know! However, this one worked fine before it was moved and sat in his basement for 2 to 3 years. I would think it's something simple.

And yes, I did learn from the last one. When it comes to tracing faults down, I need to stay as far away as possible and send the appropriate boards out to the experts!!!!!!!!!!!

Was able to get by there this afternoon and reseat the lens grounds, their connections to the PA board and the PA board itself.

All is fine again!!!

Thanks!
