tekcor1 Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 I hooked up all my channels this year, and one channel (the last channel on my last controller) has low power all the time, even when a sequence is not playing. Right now I am just testing so I am controlling the lights with the sequence editor, but the channel is at maybe 30% power. It's the channel my LED strobes are on, but I unplugged them and plugged in a different string of lights to verify it wasn't the strobes somehow causing the issue. There is also a snubber on that channel.The controller that it's happening on is new this year. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tekcor1 Posted November 29, 2010 Author Share Posted November 29, 2010 I put an incandescent strand on this channel and it doesn't light up. I tested it with a meter and the channel is getting about 15 volts when it should be off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
