Ongoing issue with Atik 11000

Dear all,

further to my previous call for help, all is not well in the state of Denmark.

It would seem, for whatever reason, my beloved Atik 11000 is doing something funny.

It appears to be collecting and storing photons even when it is not taking an image...

To explain...

If I remove the sensor cover and expose the sensor to light, and then cover the sensor and take a "dark" frame, the shot comes out completely saturated. The next "dark" comes out fine.

I have done a lot of experimentation with this and am confident that this is what is going on. The thing is, it does it on 2 separate computers. So I am thinking that it is not a software problem. Or is it? Will uninstalling and then re-installing the software make a difference?

Bintel is doing a sterling job in their discussions with Atik, but I am an impatient bugger. Has anyone heard of this type of issue before and if so what is the fix?

Cheers,

DJ Scotty
