  • FAQ 10008 – VGA Related Problems!

    If there is no VGA output, then check the following:-

    Make sure the VGA lead from the monitor is tightly secured to VGA output from the desk
    Open the desk and press on the VGA card to ensure it’s sitting firmly in its socket.
    If the above fails, there are a few hardware checks to do.

    VGA Section on a  Borris I

    Check orientation of diode (D251).
    Check there is a wire link between pins 1 & 3 on IC257 (74HCT04)  – Part Number : 05-03-0505
    Check or replace these ICs :-
    IC253 & IC255 (SN74LS245) – Part Number : 05-03-0015

    IC508 (SN74LS374)            – Part Number : 05-03-0019
    Check or replace the VIC Gal.

    If the fault still remains the VGA card may need replacing

    Borris I motherboards can now use both old and new generation VGA cards.
    A special software version is now available from our download section.
    The software is called :-
    Pearl 2000 Borris 1 (algVDU card) – 9th October 2000
    Please contact an Avolites representative before installing this software.

    Borris II motherboards can use both old and new generation VGA cards. The latest version of the software must be used and a slight modification made to the metalwork on the output panel to allow the VGA card to sit securely in place.

    Some of the earlier BORRIS I motherboards did not include the facility to run a VGA monitor on the desk so an upgrade kit may be required.
    The console will have to be sent to Avolites for the upgrade – quote Part Number 8002-3000.

    FAQ 10007 – My floppy disk drive does not work?

    On older desks, a modification to the disk drive may be necessary. This involves linking two pins on the disk drive as shown below.If this link is NOT made some functions on the DISK MENU will not work :-

    The “Format & Save” option will not function.
    However, the “Format” and the “Save” options will still function if they are executed separately.

    Q. Will any computer floppy disk drive work on my desk?

    A. The answer is yes, as long as you are using the latest software and AVOS.

    Q. Why does the light on the floppy drive stay on when it’s not being used?

    A. On the latest version of the software the modification on the floppy drive is not required. If you want the light to turn off remove the modification in the drive.

    Floppy Disk Drive (FDD) Repair & Maintenance
    A regularly maintained FDD’s will rarely cause any problems. The majority of problems that do occur on a FDD can be fixed easily.

     

    What can go wrong with a FDD?Problem
    The most common problem occurs when the 34 way ribbon cable is removed from the FDD.
    If this cable (connects the FDD to the Borris motherboard) is then plugged in backwards on the floppy drive, the drive will NOT work and the floppy drive LED light may stay on permanently.Solution
    Remove the cable from the back of the FDD and re-insert it correctly.

    Problem
    Spindle Motor or Electrical Circuit Burn Out – With age, the spindle motor and electrical circuits can burn out, but this doesn’t happen very often. The most common cause for this is a dirty/dusty FDD.Solution
    Vacuuming in and around the FDD (when cleaning the console) will help to extend the life of your FDD.

    Problem
    FDD Read/Write Errors  – The read/write heads in the FDD can and do become dirty with time. Environmental conditions will add to this problem (dusty or smoky areas!).

    Solution
    Regular cleaning of the read/write heads with a commercially available FDD HEAD CLEANER.
    These look just like a floppy disk on the outside, but inside the case is a special pad on which you put a couple of drops of a special cleaner fluid that comes with the kit. Always use the drops, as a dry pad can scratch the heads.
    Additionally, replace the cleaner-disk as recommended on the package, or when the disk pad appears dirty.
    Note that a dirty cleaner-disk can also scratch the heads.

    Problem
    FDD Read/Write Errors – Head Alignment
    With age, the read/write heads can become moved out of alignment.
    At first, you will notice that you can read/write to your floppy disk, but the disk can not be read on another consoles’ FDD.
    Eventually, the FDD will not read/write at all.

    Solution
    Replace the FDD.
    Although the heads can be re-aligned with special equipment, the cost would outweigh the price of a inexpensive new FDD.

    FAQ 10006 – I appear to have DMX related problems!

    As crazy as it sounds check the DMX lead from the desk to the moving light, ensuring there are no breaks in the cable.  Also check that you have assigned the patch to the DMX output you are using.

    DMX Section on a  Borris II

    On the Borris2 motherboard, in the top left corner you will see four white IC’s (6N137).
    Beside each IC there is an LED.
    When each LED is lit and slightly flashing this indicates the IC is outputting a DMX signal. If any of the LED’s are not on, start by changing the opto-coupler (6N137) with the spare supplied. If the LED turns on the fault may be cured.

    If all four LED’s are on and there is no DMX output change the driver chip (SN75174N) which is situated between the 5pin XLR connector and the four opto-couplers.

    DMX Section on a  Borris I

    On the Borris1 motherboard you will find two LED’s either side of the DMX driver chip (SN75174).
    These LED’s indicate the status of the DMX output

    If these LED’s are not lit then change the driver chip with the spare supplied.
    FAQ 10005 – My Graphics Tablet is malfunctioning?

    1212 HR II Graphics Tablet.

    On the 1212 HR II Graphic Tablet are three status LED’s – these indicate the condition of the Tablet.

    Power LED is lit when power is ON
    Sense LED is lit when the stylus is in the working area and within the proximity
    Status LED “Lights” when a button on the stylus is pressed

    1212 HR III Graphics Tablet.

    On the 1212 HR III Graphic Tablet are three status LED’s – these indicate the condition of the Tablet.

    Power LED flashes when the tablet has power but the pen is not within the working area.
    Status LED is lit when the stylus is in the working area and within the proximity
    Mode LED “Lights” when a button on the stylus is pressed

    Troubleshooting

    Before you confirm your tablet does not function properly and decide to send it back to AVOLITES for repair, please go through the following steps:

    If the Power LED flashes when the stylus is in the working area, then it’s very possible that the graphic tablet does not work properly

    When the Power LED is on and the LED does not flash when the stylus is on the working area, then check and make sure all the connections are secure. If the breakdown is due to disconnection, switch off the desk and connect all the cables firmly and then restart the desk and the graphics tablet.

    If for any reason the stylus has been unplugged while the graphics tablet is on, we strongly suggest that you press the key “RESET” in order to make it function properly.

    Care & Cleaning

    As with all electrical equipment, it is necessary to exercise care while handling and cleaning the graphic tablet. Please note the following :-

    Avoid dropping or knocking the tablet or stylus.

    To clean the tablet and its accessories, make sure the desk and graphics tablet is switched off.

    Use a soft cloth lightly damped with water or a non-abrasive cleaner which does not harm plastic components.

    Do not use chemicals or abrasive materials which may damage the surface.

    Never immerse any part of the tablet or stylus in any liquid, as this will damage the circuitry inside.
    FAQ 10004 – My keyboard does not work?

    The QWERTY DIN socket is for connecting a standard PC keyboard.
    This is used for entering legends to name memories, chases and palettes.

    Before you confirm that your keyboard does not function properly, please note that you should always connect the keyboard to the desk before powering up the desk.Note that for newer style keyboards, a PS/2 Style Keyboard Adaptor Cable is required – contact Avolites for further details.

  • FAQ 10003 – How do I link out the Grand Master Fader on a Pearl?

    Occasionally, the Grand Master Fader on a Pearl can get damaged.

    Please note: a DMX driver chip is also included in the spare parts kit for the following consoles:
    Quartz, Tiger Touch II and Arena
    I

    If you require additional driver chips, they can be ordered via your local Avolites Distributor.

    Titan Mobile, Quartz, Tiger Touch II, Arena, Sapphire Touch

    Part Number #05-03-0970

    Tiger Touch/Pro, Pearl Expert/Pro
    Part Number #05-03-0433

  • The touch screen on my console is not behaving as expected. How do I fix this?

    If you are experiencing unusual touch screen behaviour (e.g. mouse going haywire), then the screen will need to be cleaned thoroughly. This includes the corner edges of the screen.

    To clean the corner edges of the screen, you will need to use either a brush or a business card.  Once you have cleaned the screen, apply a touch screen and sensitivity calibration.

  • .NET 4.7.2 Compatibility error during install

    Titan Version 12 requires .NET 4.7.2 to run. If you have received the “.NET Compatibility” error during install this probably means your windows version is out of date. You might need to perform windows updates on windows 10 to get to one of these versions.

    Supported versions are:

    Windows 10 Anniversary Update and later (version 1607 and later) (x86 and x64)
    Windows 8.1 (x86 and x64)
    Windows 7 Service Pack 1 (x86 and x64)

  • Downgrading from V12 to V11 – Unsupported DMX Firmware

    Please note that using upgrade installers for older versions of Titan after running the V12 recovery is not currently supported and will prevent the console from starting if attempted. If you need to downgrade to a previous version it is important that this is done via a relevant recovery stick only. Consoles not starting following an attempt to use an earlier upgrade installer can be fixed by running a recovery stick and selecting Full Erase option (if recovering to a version prior to V12, you can reuse the license which was emailed to you previously).

    When downgrading from V12 to previous versions of Titan it is also important that the Sapphire DMX panel firmware is downgraded in any consoles with ST-DMX cards (Sapphire Touch, TitanNet Processor, Tiger Touch II and Arena). This is because new features in the firmware are not compatible with previous versions. To downgrade the firmware open USB Expert Console and put any Sapphire DMX Panels into Boot Mode. This is found in the Service Tab. When the panels have re-appeared in boot mode, select Program which will open a file dialog. In the file dialog navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Avolites\UsbExpert\Panel Software and select the st_dmx.bin file. This will now install the previous ST-DMX firmware. Once this is complete do the same on all Sapphire DMX panels and then exit Boot mode. Now restart the console and you should now be OK to use the previous version of Titan. When you next upgrade to V12 you will need to carry out the firmware update again.

  • Intel Command Center Service Prevents Titan from starting

    Intel has issued a driver update for their built in graphics cards that may cause issues with Titan starting up.

    If you try and launch a PC suite application ( Simulator, TitanOne, TitanGo, and Mobile) and it does not complete start up and stays on the “pulsing grey Titan screen”. Also check in the Task Manager for windows if you see the “oneapp.igcc.winservice”, and or “Intel® Graphics Command Center Service” You will need to perform the following fix to
    allow Titan to run again.

    This driver update may come thru a windows update or by installing the Intel drivers manually. The drivers lock up ports required by Titan to run correctly.

    After confirming in the Task Manger of  Windows (control- alt – delete on keyboard then select task manager from the pop up list) that the “oneapp.igcc.winservice”, and or “Intel® Graphics Command Center Service” are running do the following:

    In Task Manger click the Services

    At the bottom click the “Open Services

    In the “Services” window that opens find “Intel (R) Graphics Command Center Service”

    Double click on it
    In the Window that opens, change the “Startup type” from “Automatic” to “Disabled”

    Click Apply

    Close the “Intel(R) Graphics Command Center Service Properties” and the “Services” windows
    Restart the computer.

    Titan should now launch and run correctly.

    Thru our testing disabling this service does not seem to have adverse effects.  If you have graphical errors outside of Titan, you may wish to do the same steps but change from “ Disabled” to “Automatic” and restart the computer again , then perform
    the fix again next time you need Titan.

    A video of this has also been created here: https://youtu.be/wfJUFc2rCCE

    Alternative steps provided by Intel (Not Recommended):

    Uninstall all the drivers, as they are only generic and might not be compatible with the laptop.

    Our Intel drivers are only generic, we provide our drivers to the laptop manufacturers and they modify them in order to work with their laptops.
    The laptop manufacturers integrated the graphic processor and soldered it down to their motherboard, the laptop manufacturer assures the compatibility and the drivers.

    We strongly suggest to install only the drivers from the laptop manufacturer
    installing incompatible drivers can create some registry issues. the following troubleshooting steps should be applied:

    Check that the OS isupdate to the latest version

    1. Download the latest graphic driver from the laptop manufacturer website for that specific model of laptop and save it on the computer.
    2. Disconnect from the Internet so no new drivers are automatically installed by Windows Update.
    3. Uninstall the graphic driver and all the other legacy drivers from Control Panel > Programs and Features.
    4. Restart the computer.
    5. Confirm in Device Manager > Video Adapters the controller is listed as ‘Microsoft Basic Display Adapter’ > if not, repeat steps 2 through 4.
    6. If the adapter continues to be listed as ‘Intel HD Graphics’ or similar, and no other Intel Graphics driver is listed under ‘Programs and Features’ for removal, then it means Windows has switched to a previously installed Legacy driver. At this
    point we can remove Legacy drivers from Device Manager:
    6.1.1 Right-click on ‘Intel HD Graphics’ or similar, and select ‘Uninstall Device’
    6.1.2 In the pop-up window make sure ‘Delete the driver software for this device’ is checked.
    6.1.3 Click on ‘Uninstall’.

    6.1.4 Restart. (Repeat steps 6.1.1 through 6.1.4 until the device gets listed as ‘Microsoft Basic Display Adapter’)
    7. Install the graphic driver that was downloaded on step 1.
    8. Restart the computer.
    9. Reconnect to the Internet.
    10. Download the Intel Graphics Command Centre from the Microsoft Store. ‘

  • Titan: Grey Pulsing Screen

    For optimal performance, we recommend using a dedicated Windows PC that is not connected to the internet and has anti-virus/firewall services disabled, including Windows Defender. This is to prevent back-end communication issues required by the software and its services.

    Alienware Command Center (AWCC) can prevent Titan from running correctly, this may affect users of Dell Alienware machines. Troubleshooting steps for this are currently unavailable and we would advise using an alternative machine.

    Tested on Windows 10. Please ensure that all applicable updates have been installed. Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Bootcamp and virtual machines, e.g. VMware, Parallels are not supported.

    In some cases, Titan may launch and present a continuous grey pulsing screen which is related to any one of the following:

    Titan.exe> application does not launch when starting Simulator, Titan One, Titan Go or Mobile. Two icons must be present on the taskbar. If this is not the case, then you will need to check the following:

    Anti-virus and Firewall software (including Windows Defender) may block Titan from working properly on your machine.  You will need to check the Titan.exe application exists in the following directory: C:\Program Files (x86)\Avolites\Titan (both Titan.exe and Titan.exe.config must be present).

    You will also need to check none of the Avolites applications and services are being blocked by a Firewall.

    If the above does not resolve the issue, then it is highly likely another application is using the ports Titan require. If your machine has Intel Graphics Command Center installed, then you will need to apply the following: https://www.avolites.com/support/titan-troubleshooting#2628295-intel-oneappigccwinservice-prevents-titan-from-starting

    · V12.0 and above: AvoKey license has not been applied correctly. Please ensure you are importing the correct token file. If the incorrect token file has been imported the engine will start, however, the screen will continue to pulse grey.

    V12.0 and above requires a new license request to be submitted via www.avolites.com/licensing. The following video will guide you through the process: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=86PcC0OzL7E&t=33s

    · V12.0 and above: Hardware and application mismatch (e.g. Using Editor Key to launch Mobile Application).

    Additional Infomation:

    Editor Keys will only Launch the Simulator or GO application (can be used with T1-00001 to T1-019999).

    AvoKeys hardware locked to the Mobile will only launch the Simulator or Mobile application.

Also check in the Task Manager for windows if you see the “oneapp.igcc.winservice”, and or “Intel® Graphics Command Center Service” You will need to perform the following fix to
    allow Titan to run again.

    This driver update may come thru a windows update or by installing the Intel drivers manually. The drivers lock up ports required by Titan to run correctly.

    After confirming in the Task Manger of Windows (control- alt – delete on keyboard then select task manager from the pop up list) that the “oneapp.igcc.winservice”, and or “Intel® Graphics Command Center Service” are running do the following:

      In Task Manger click the Services

      At the bottom click the “Open Services

      In the “Services” window that opens find “Intel (R) Graphics Command Center Service”

      Double click on it
      In the Window that opens, change the “Startup type” from “Automatic” to “Disabled”

      Click Apply

      Close the “Intel(R) Graphics Command Center Service Properties” and the “Services” windows
      Restart the computer.

    Titan should now launch and run correctly.

    Thru our testing disabling this service does not seem to have adverse effects. If you have graphical errors outside of Titan, you may wish to do the same steps but change from “ Disabled” to “Automatic” and restart the computer again , then perform
    the fix again next time you need Titan.

    Alternative steps provided by Intel (Not Recommended):

    Uninstall all the drivers, as they are only generic and might not be compatible with the laptop.

    Our Intel drivers are only generic, we provide our drivers to the laptop manufacturers and they modify them in order to work with their laptops.
    The laptop manufacturers integrated the graphic processor and soldered it down to their motherboard, the laptop manufacturer assures the compatibility and the drivers.

    We strongly suggest to install only the drivers from the laptop manufacturer
    installing incompatible drivers can create some registry issues. the following troubleshooting steps should be applied:

    Check that the OS isupdate to the latest version

    1. Download the latest graphic driver from the laptop manufacturer website for that specific model of laptop and save it on the computer.
    2. Disconnect from the Internet so no new drivers are automatically installed by Windows Update.
    3. Uninstall the graphic driver and all the other legacy drivers from Control Panel > Programs and Features.
    4. Restart the computer.
    5. Confirm in Device Manager > Video Adapters the controller is listed as ‘Microsoft Basic Display Adapter’ > if not, repeat steps 2 through 4.
    6. If the adapter continues to be listed as ‘Intel HD Graphics’ or similar, and no other Intel Graphics driver is listed under ‘Programs and Features’ for removal, then it means Windows has switched to a previously installed Legacy driver. At this
    point we can remove Legacy drivers from Device Manager:
    6.1.1 Right-click on ‘Intel HD Graphics’ or similar, and select ‘Uninstall Device’
    6.1.2 In the pop-up window make sure ‘Delete the driver software for this device’ is checked.
    6.1.3 Click on ‘Uninstall’.

    6.1.4 Restart. (Repeat steps 6.1.1 through 6.1.4 until the device gets listed as ‘Microsoft Basic Display Adapter’)
    7. Install the graphic driver that was downloaded on step 1.
    8. Restart the computer.
    9. Reconnect to the Internet.
    10. Download the Intel Graphics Command Centre from the Microsoft Store. ‘
