    Good Day Everyone,

    We have an issue on our QMDI Classic that happened today. The press was running fine this morning.
    After our break for lunch - when the operator turned the press on, something inside the main power supply box blew, giving off a slight burning smell. The main switch on the front of the power supply tripped.
    After I reset the trip switch to ON the press powered up as normal, inches backward and forward etc.
    When I attempted to advance the plates manually, as we normally do, to get ready for the next imaging, I noticed that the PLATE RELEASE BUTTONS on all 4 units no longer respond.

    Can anyone help please? Which board/s control these plate release buttons and what could have gone wrong with the power supply to cause these to stop working?

    Any advice would be most appreciated.

    Many Thanks

    Shawn
