Common Encore LP7IP LED Par errors & problems
What techs run into most, and what's usually behind it. The step-by-step fix for your exact unit is in Ask Roadie.
- Step-by-step fixGet the fix →
Used outdoors and now has water intrusion / lost IP65 / intermittent after rain
Likely cause: IP65 integrity depends on every port being sealed or capped; grease keeps the sealed contacts dry, and unsealed/damaged ports are the usual path for the water that causes post-rain faults.
- Step-by-step fixGet the fix →
How many can I daisy-chain on power, and downstream units drop out / breaker trips?
Likely cause: Exceeding the per-circuit unit count starves downstream supplies and overloads the breaker; the 10/20 figures are the manufacturer daisy-chain ceilings for each mains voltage.
- Step-by-step fixGet the fix →
Fixture freezes on last look, blacks out, or drifts when the DMX cable is pulled
Likely cause: The fixture has to be told what to do on signal loss; the observed behavior is whichever No-DMX mode is currently set, not a hardware fault.
- Step-by-step fixGet the fix →
Fixture is behaving oddly / want to wipe custom settings back to factory
Likely cause: A clean restore clears a corrupted or mis-set config that no single menu change is fixing; passcode 011 gates it so it is not triggered by accident.
- Step-by-step fixGet the fix →
Colors look off / white does not match other fixtures
Likely cause: RGBL calibration and the preset color-temperature macros let you match units to each other and to a reference white without a console.
- Step-by-step fixGet the fix →
Fan is too loud for a quiet room / film set
Likely cause: The LP7IP has a selectable quiet fan mode; Silent caps fan RPM for noise-sensitive environments while Auto/High prioritize cooling.
- Step-by-step fixGet the fix →
Which DMX channel modes are available and how many channels does each use?
Likely cause: Matches the console profile to the fixture personality so every channel lands on the right parameter; wrong mode = channels shifted and controls do the wrong thing.
- Step-by-step fixGet the fix →
Flicker on camera
Likely cause: Raising PWM refresh above the camera shutter's sampling rate eliminates the beat pattern that shows as banding.
