QSI 532 ws loose shutter capstan

Phillip Klein All Messages By This Member #28407 Hello, It appears the shutter capstan drive on my QSI 532ws has come loose and it no longer turns the shutter. I contacted Atik service and learned that they stopped servicing 500 series QSI cameras in 2018 and they could not tell me what tool (possibly allen wrench) or size to use to tighten the shutter drive capstan.?Up to now the camera has predictably provided great results and it would be extremely disappointing not to use it going forward. I would greatly appreciate learning from anyone who has had a similar issue and has knowledge of what tool and size is needed to tighten the capstan. Sincerely, Phillip

They are exactly the same except that the 683 has a much higher speed read.? That implies the USB interface in the camera is updated.? But all the mechanics are the same, including the shutter. ?
