The thing is that the fold out drawings are not on the one in the Film-Tech manuals section.

If you want the full monty from it, then as said above, get your nose into the DA20 book. It's not difficult to do the mods, as long as your eyesight and soldering are good!  |  IP: Logged Josh Jones Redhat Posts: 1207 From: Plano, TX Registered: Apr 2000 posted 05-22-2002 09:16 PM                        well, my soldering might not be as good as a wave tank, but it is decent. The processor is now running happily Thanks again guys Josh  |  IP: Logged Paul G.

I didn't do all the mods on the backplane as the theatre only wanted the OBE facility, they're not interested in digital at this time. The Cat441 in tha tset up was easier than the Cat222SR/A, just plug and play!  |  IP: Logged
