Better than I hoped !!
And I think I'm covered now ...
Thanks again to everyone offering help, I'll report when I have it back, I also got anothe unit on the way to my place that I can check out for operation.
If I forgot to PM back someone who resonded, there's so many things going on at the same time.
I also can only encourage anyone in need for repair and calibration to give the system to Kevin Fortune. I've been updated daily on the status and got a small insight on the expertise and energy he devoted to restore my 4 panels - Kevin rules ! ! !

You or your tech can contact me via the form there, at http://www.fravel.net/contact-me/ I can probably provide schematics and some email assistance on repairs. There is a very good chance that the problem is not in the potted modules, there isn't anything especially fragile in them, unless most of the semiconductors got fried on the board anyway.
