Where is the calibration data stored on a fos/4 Panel?

Description

Many ETC LED Lighting fixtures have calibration data stored on them in order to match output with another ETC fixture of the same type. When making field repairs to fixtures,  it is important to know where that data is stored and whether it would need to come back to the ETC Factory for re-calibration.

Explanation

  • Source 4 LED (Series 1, 2, and 3), Desire, and fos/4 lines of fixtures have calibration data stored on the LED array. Thus, a replacement array can be pre-configured at the factory.
  • Colorsource Spot, Par, Cyc, and Linear 1 fixtures have calibration data stored on the control card. If you need to replace the LED Array or Control Card, they have to be replaced together in a pre-configured kit which is calibrated in advance at the factory.
  • Colorsource Linear 2 and Linear 4 fixtures have calibration data stored on the dual driver card(s). If you need to replace an LED array or a dual driver card, all the arrays and driver boards in the fixture have to be replaced together in a pre-configured kit which is calibrated in advance at the factory.
