Author Topic: Need Schematic/data EPRAD Starlet II Kenneth Wuepper Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1026 From: Saginaw, MI, USA Registered: Feb 2002 posted 01-09-2003 04:02 PM                     I need the correct data on the Starlet II Format Card. This is not the same unit as in the Manuals section. This is a minimum feature model. The Starlet II was from 1989-90 model and has two cards in tandem. Front card is 27034-1 and the rear card is 27032-1 Front card has DIP switches S-1 (8 positions), S-2 (8 positions), R-24 Rt Level, R-21 Lft Level The rear card has one switch S-3 (Rmt/Loc) Information is not available from EPRAD on this processor which is part of an EPRAD packaged console. Your help is appreciated.

EPRAD has been unable to provide any information on these. KEN The unit is in Bay City so I will have to make a special trip to get the pictures if necessary for your determination.  |  IP: Logged Gordon McLeod Film God Posts: 9532 From: Toronto Ontario Canada Registered: Jun 99 posted 01-10-2003 10:37 PM                     What is it not doing Ken you have mail  |  IP: Logged Kenneth Wuepper Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1026 From: Saginaw, MI, USA Registered: Feb 2002 posted 01-11-2003 07:23 AM                     Gordon, Thanks for the mail. The unit 'wakes up' in random modes. The fading time between formats is too long and the first several seconds of sync sound are lost in the process. Our manual (a copy provided by EPRAD) does not describe the purpose or adjustment of the two sets of DIP switches on the board nor the two level controls. Thanks, KEN  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 01-11-2003 04:22 PM                     Kennith, Why on earth would you, or they for that matter want to fix it. Even when it worked it did nothing right.......I think thats what EPRAD is saying by not supplying any info on it...even thouigh IT IS there a the factory.

Also the use of parametric eq was very handy  |  IP: Logged Bruce McGee Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1776 From: Asheville, NC USA... Nowhere in Particular. Registered: Aug 1999 posted 01-12-2003 08:09 AM                     Hey friends, I know that nobody likes the Starlet, but if one came my way, I'd take it. I'm thinking of ways to get cheap and dirty stereo out of a Holmes 8.  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 01-12-2003 10:10 AM                     I can think of at least several items over at Radio Shack that I would replace it with before I'd fix it.....it if was any good Eprad would still be supporting it....they sure made enough of them.....
