Thanks Topper for the suggestion. Will look into the transformer more closely when I open it again.
Would the thermister be visible and easily accessible for replacement, or it could be hidden inside the form?

Yesterday I left it working on the simple setup without any plugins and it worked for several hours, but with fan blowing.
Then inserted a Seca CAM (old version with firmware 1.05) in the CI slot, and Cyfra + card, and it worked also without any problems. Opened channels as normal.
I would be happy to leave it at that, but there is something wrong with the audio selection.
When I choose English instead of Polish, there is no sound.
The only way to get English audio is to install CCcam.
Then I decided to start adding plugins, and put the card into the card reader, and as I expected, it shut down all of a sudden.
It takes about two minutes to power up again, but I needed to press the on switch on the front panel, as using the remote didn't help.

This is really driving me nuts.
Why would the CCcam has any effect on the shutdown?
Is it causing more power consumption which leads to accelerated temperature rise?
Will do some tests over the weekend and time out the shutdown period just to make sure it is indeed an overheating problem.
Without the fan first and then with the fan working on different speeds (It has three speeds)

Also, any suggestions on getting the English audio working?
Perhaps changing the image might help.
Which image is recommended for 7000S, instead of Gemini?
