Hi David,

I searched the legacy Echolab manuals and found only one that might be what you need. It is for the Nova 1716. Please email me at luke[at]blackmagic-design.com and I will email it to you.

Hi Burg,

I was the Sr. Product Manager at Echolab and I have been working at Blackmagic ever since Blackmagic acquired the assets.

I know which switches you are referring to and unfortunately they are impossible to find. As a matter of fact the manufacturer of those switches stopped producing them about 1.5 years ago when Echolab did a last time buy.

I’m sorry I could not be more helpful.

Kind regards,
Ankit Patel

Ankit,

i have the Echolab 1700 (nova 16 sdi) and the power supply (6249F) seems to have failed. Can you refer me to a company that specializes in Echolab switchers. FL or East Coast if possible. Anything would help.

Hi Charle,

Please send me an email with your contact info so that I can call you to see if I can help. Echolab had a few versions of the Nova and I will need to know exactly which version you have.

As you know getting parts for the old Echolab systems is very difficult however if I can help you identify the OEM source of the power supply you might have some more luck finding a replacement.

Kind regards,

Hey,

We have two Nova 1700-16 switchers. We also had a power supply go out and found a replacment from Mouser Electronics (https://www.mouser.com)

It’s part number 675-GLC40-5-G It was $48 bucks. What you basicly need is a 40 Watt 5V 8A Switching Power Supply.

I changed it out in about 10 minutes. All you need it a #2 Philips screwdriver. I could walk you through it.

Hi. Might be jumping in here but I am supporting Bank of America TV studios and they have an Echolab 5500 switcher. A few of the SDI output cards have ceased
Functioning. Any chance you may have some of these?

Thanks so much

Unfortunately we do not have any of those. We also cannot get them. So i’m sorry to say we really can’t help with this one.
