    That's my take on this. If the problem was with the scanners or their internal wiring then full auto would show the same failures. To me the fact that full auto works fine suggests something in the software / ILDA wiring / ILDA Plug / Socket / DAC chain.

    Yep. In the end, it was the ILDA cable. There was a whole tub of them at work.

    Sorry for the very late reply, I moved house and had no internet for a while.

    Happened to me on a gig once... Except I couldn't get to the ILDA cable that was at fault, so I just had squashed projectors for a while. Took the cable down, checked it out, sure enough the X+ pin was broken clean off.

    Learnt to always check ILDA pins on male ends before any gig. :P
