Re: Victor 884 issue

We've never calibrated any of them before, but I did mention that to the students (I was advising them remotely)... I'll make sure they do it when they meet tomorrow, just to make sure.

I'll have them double check the DSC power. Last time I saw the setup, it was fully powered... we have moved build spaces since then, maybe something came loose during the move!

There are no PWM Y-cables in use. They even tried swapping PWM cables (I think they said they went through 3 different cables).

Any other ideas? One thing the did mention was that they had issues with the Victor 888 in the fall, but that it seemed to work fine now. They were wondering if there might have been a code update that made the 888 work better, but caused issues with the 884?
