Samuel Navas Posted May 25, 2013 Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 Hi Chaps, I just bought a rig - an Ultra with a greenscreen monitor. I switched everything on at home without a camera, so no video going in. The monitor came on as expected (blank green), lasted about 20 minutes, then began to flicker, wave, and click loudly. Does this will all batteries, fully charged. Could the simple absence of a video feed be causing this, or have I got myself a genuine rip-off? Opinions much appreciated. Best, Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Members Erik Brul Posted May 25, 2013 Premium Members Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 Hi Sam, Did you the 75ohm switch? Cheers, Erik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samuel Navas Posted May 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 I'm afraid I don't know what you mean Erik - do you mean a switch for resistance? Where is it located? Thanks in advance, Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Members Erik Brul Posted May 25, 2013 Premium Members Report Share Posted May 25, 2013 Yes i mean the 75 ohm terminator switch, no idea where it is located. Was the screen cold, i mean several greenscreens has some troubles with cold in the past, at least my screens did .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Callarman Posted May 26, 2013 Report Share Posted May 26, 2013 I would try to get some video into that thing and see what happens, but either way I dont think there should be any waving or clicking assuming your batteries are good. Just to be clear, is it stable for 20 minutes each time you change batteries and then it starts acting up, or has it been permanently funky since the first test?

Samuel Navas Posted May 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2013 Tested it with video going in - still doing it. Looks like a write-off, doesn't it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
