Default 192 i/o issue

Hello everyone,



after 17 years of loyal services one of my 192 does not initiate anymore.
the 3 lights do not blink after turing on the chassis or, when simply being connected to a core card direct in the mac.


that one used to be in sync with others but now it seems it has a serious issue


still when everything is turned off the power button is orange and turns green when power on the mac or the chassis


any clues ?
is it fixable under it's second hand pricing ?

Faulty cable would be most likely culprit. Then faulty DD card

Well if you have spare time, try to swap the DD cards between units and see if the problem moves from A to B. If it does you know you need a replacement DD card

No problem. Just that you know, 192 interface cannot function without working DD card. Avid HD interfaces do not have this "feature"

Tell me about it. DigiDesign interfaces just could not in any way have 16/16 full analog setup. Avid HD can

Default Re: 192 i/o issue

nope not the cards at all
i tried one by one and then all together in all possibilities including switching options : all the cards are working in the 2nd 192


if i install the working 192's cards in the one that has issues, that last one won't initiate at all


So now that i know it is not the cards, what could it be ?
