manual iris problem at DVinfo.net

Okay, what am I missing?
When I set the IRIS MODE SWITCH to "M" on my GY HD110u, my iris dial locks. Can't turn it until I unplug the cable all together.

Strange. Usually it would "lock" when you switch to auto. So is it always locked or resisting manual adjustment? Does it respond properly in auto mode? With the "momentary" exposure button in manual?
How about with the camera turned off?
You should be able to isolate or eliminate physical impediment after trying these.

Make sure you do not have "Full Auto" turned on.
