Broatcast Tools ACS 8x2 Switcher

Z

zachmorton

I have several Broadcast Tools ACS 8x2 switchers that need the chips replaced. Anyone have a clue what kind they use? BT isn't a help at all. Lightning takes the GPI chips and occasionally an audio input channel, and all I would have to do is replace the opamp chips and they'd be fine. Getting tired of spending 600-800 for a new switcher each time one channel gets lost.

If the processor is getting zorched, than your only alternative is to replace with the same because its programmed by Broadcast Tools. Rather than replacing devices after every storm, you should really consider installing good protection against lightning/surge damage.
