[filmscanners] Mechanical problems LS30
Hi,
I have a problem with my Nikon LS30 scanner now and then but it happens more
and more. The Nikon LS30 has 2 motors, one to push and pull the
scanning-unit up and down to set the focus and one to drag the scanning-unit
forth and back to scan the negative or slide. When I switch the scanner on
it starts pulling the scanning-unit down and then pushing it up a few
millimeters. But than it stops and give a low frequency beep for about 10
seconds. The green led is flashing and after the beep stops it glows
continuously. Then the scanner does nothing and cannot be used.
I tried to solve this problem many times and disassembled the scanner almost
completely. In most cases it starts working properly after that but I never
found anything that caused the problem. Now the scanner has this problem so
often that I cannot use it any more.
I am using a SCSI adapter on a modern 2,8 MHz P4 system, Windows XP
professional and VueScan 7.5.47.
Does anyone know anything of this problem and can give me any advise?
Vincent
