Re: Flickering meters on a16 ultra
Caps are a likely issue, all of our Scope gear is nearing that age. I'm now feeling a little paranoid about my A16U, which I keep nice and cool, but I've never looked inside. I have a lot of old gear (also from that era) that have been fixed by my service tech. I guess it wouldnt be a peoblem to fi...

Re: Flickering meters on a16 ultra
Thanks Valis! Hmmm. Ok But could caps (related for instance to the leds) make SRAM failure as well? Or is this maybe another issue. What causes SRAM failure? (I have no idea what it really means), and could it in the end f*** up the drivers? And..would anybody have schematics for the A16U? Endre

Re: Flickering meters on a16 ultra
Ok. Finally back in the studio. These are the findings: 1) its not the PSU (changed that) 2) not the cables or dust in the ports (sprayed ports and changed cables) 3) the flicker (or led lights surge) starts when I power on the PC (before initalizing hardware) 4) it cant be the luna card/slot cos th...

Re: Flickering meters on a16 ultra
Garyb;
I havent tried the adat option cos it would mean less channels. My bords is Zlink versions (less adat i/o) and Im hooked up to a 40ch desk ++ and need all the i/o’s. But i will try it, just t check if its a z-link problem. Thanks for the tip! I will try other cables as well.

Re: Help Needed to Find Suitable PC for Scope DSP Card
Hi. I have used this: https://www.supermicro.com/en/products/motherboard/X10SLA-F for the last 5 years, rock solid. With Xeon Quad-Core E3-1280v3 3.6GHz 8MB, w/ 32 GB ram (8x4).

Re: Flickering meters on a16 ultra
Hi GaryB
I am only using Zlink on 2 x PulsarII + Luna + expan plate. So no adat.
Z-link locks into place. Could it still be dirt in adat ports?

Re: Flickering meters on a16 ultra
Thanks for your input Bud!
I do see the same rise in levels in the virtual meters inside my scope 7 software, wouldnt that indicate an actual spike of noise ? Or does the virtual meters in scope 7 just copy the A16U meters?

Flickering meters on a16 ultra
Hi. Got a problem with one of my A16 U. The lights on all channels goes on and off randomly, at the same time. Like it gets a pulse from somewhere. It varies in “level”. Anybody had this issue before? I will change my he PSU with another one next time in studio. The zlink cables, And also check the ...

Re: Can I connect 2 x A16 Ultra to 1 x Pulsar II card?
But both the Pulsar II and Luna w/ Z-Link Plate work in the same computer as one SCOPE system,- no ? Yes! So, when it´s ONE SCOPE system and SCOPE is master, it should work connecting a 3rd converter via ADAT. I understand wordclock is always distributed via ADAT and Z-Link as well. So you´d set al...

Re: Can I connect 2 x A16 Ultra to 1 x Pulsar II card?
So, you have 2 A16U connected to a LUNA w/ ZLink plate,- right ? Your Pulsar II offers 2x ADAT I/O for a 3rd A16U ? If YES, that should work all together ... No, sorry if I was unclear: I have 1 a16U connected to my Pulsar II via zlink, and another a16U to my Luna w/z linkplate. I would like to hoo...

Hi. Just wondered if I can use two A16 Ultra on one Pulsar II card at the same time (or Luna with zlink plate). My current system is Pulsar II and Luna w/Zlink plate connected to 2 x A16 Ultra´s via 4 x firewire cables . I would like to get more i/o and have now another A16Ultra at hand. But can I u...

This I dont understand.... :o I started getting PCI capacity reached messages with my 2 scope cards. I checked samplerate and found that board priorities had changed so that my Luna now was the first board and my Pulsar II my second. I thought something had changed in cset.ini and checked but nooooo...
