Rich Posted November 19, 2004 Share Posted November 19, 2004 No manual to offer, but if you got a problem then you can't do any worse than ask, I presume your not the same Steve Jones who was once (dunno if still are) the Southern Rep for VCL ?.

PS:- If you're not that Steve Jones, could you be the one who hosted 'The Pyramid Game' back in the 80's? 32721[/snapback] No that's not me either! I have just purchased this used VCL Dome (model VC431) It's got a heater in it. I connected the heater to 24 volts DC and it got very hot and blown the end off. I assume the PSU should be 24 volts AC and that was why its blown but I am not sure. Also I need to replace this power resistor (heater) but I am not sure what value it is. Its got these numbers on it C6S HSA25 1 0R J 9841. Can anyone help? Last question do I connect the heater to run 24/7? Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian.cant Posted November 27, 2004 Share Posted November 27, 2004 Steve this probably no help at all but i sould be pulling a one out of a job after crimbo, (at least i think thats what they are). Do they look like a biscuit tin with a dome on the bottom? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest cctvman Posted December 4, 2004 Share Posted December 4, 2004 Hi, Yep 24vac for the heater although i have seen a dc version & it normally has a thermo to kick it in when things get cold although i have seen them running in the summer A kwick call to vcl tech support & they will happly give you the value of the component Regards Cctvman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest stevejones Posted December 4, 2004 Share Posted December 4, 2004 A kwick call to vcl tech support & they will happly give you the value of the componentRegards Cctvman 33667[/snapback] Thanks I called tech support they advised there are 12v AC and 24 Volt ones about. Apparently the new ones are both 12 volts and 24 volts. I managed to sort it by changing the power resistor to 50 ohms 25 watt it now runs off 24 volt AC. Thanks for all your help Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scruffy Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 I know a tad about VCL domes and Maxcom stuff too Steve if you need any help. PS:- If you're not that Steve Jones, could you be the one who hosted 'The Pyramid Game' back in the 80's? I don't suppose you have any idea where i can get spare parts for a VCL dome do you? The red power cable has severed running from the rotary union in the neck of the unit! Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
