Xenarc won't display anything

**cdcamaro9534** · 11-09-2005, 06:18 PM

I just got Xenarc 700IDT, I hooked it up on my bench and it functioned perfectly coming off a battery and my laptop. I put it in my car using power from my car, and all I get is a green led on the front. If I press the power, or menu buttons nothing happens. Though the touch screen still works as long as I look at my laptop to see it. So I took it back out and tried it on my bench again, and nothing. Fuses are good. I'm at a lost. Any help??

I have somewhat the same issue. Where did you get yours? I got mine from logicsupply.com

When I turn it on, the monitor flashes green like it's not powered. But if I plug into a regular monitor, it works fine. I haven't even gotten the TS to work yet.

Mine was originally purchased at Industrial Computer Solutions. I called Xenarc and they said that it was possibly a fried inverter board. I can't believe that you can pay over 500 bucks for something and they can't even make it last more then 2 hours. Anyway looks like mine is getting shipped back home for repair. Hopefully yours is under warranty too.

were the 12v regulated in the car? maybe when you started the car you fed too much power and thats when you fried it.

No I never even started the car. I had it wired on the same 12v, ign, gnd from my cd player. As soon as I plugged them in, I turned them on just to test, and the monitor was dead. I double checked my wiring, and everything was fine. My cd player was playing, so I started checking everything with my multi-meter, and it all checked out fine. Don't really know what happen, worked perfectly when I was testing it with my 12v battery I removed from my jet ski for the winter, and my laptop. Plus they say it's good from 11v to 24v on there specs. But yeah I never even started my car.
