source is working and there is still
no sound, see Cause 2.

Cause 2:

The card output is turned OFF.

Solution 1: Turn ON the card output that is

used. See RS-232 accessible
commands in section 7. If no sound
is present, see Solution 2.

Solution 2: If there is still no sound, see

Cause 3.

Cause 3:

Cable connections to the
destination are incorrect.

Solution:

Make sure that cables are
connected properly. Also, make
sure that the continuity and wiring
are good. If there is still no sound
present, see Cause 4.

Cause 4:

The destination amplifier has a
problem.

Solution 1: Make sure that the destination

amplifier is powered. If there is still
no sound, see Solution 2

Solution 2: Set the volume of the destination

amplifier to a reasonable level. If
there is still no sound, call ALTINEX
at (714) 990-2300.

8.3  SOUND DISTORTION

Cause 1:

The source level is above 1V p-p.

Solution:

Make sure that the source level is
below 1V p-p. If the sound is still
distorted, see Cause 2.

Cause 2:

The destination amplifier provides
excessive amplification.

Solution 1: Make sure that the source level is

high enough so the destination amp
does not have to provide excessive
amplification thereby distorting the
signal. If there is still sound
distortion, see Solution 2.

Solution 2: Call ALTINEX at (714) 990-2300.

8.4  SOUND LEVEL IS LOW

Cause 1:

The volume levels are
inappropriate.

Solution 1: Turn up the source volume. If sound

level is still low, see Solution 2.

Solution 2: Turn up the destination amplifier

volume. If the sound level is still low,
see Cause 2.

Cause 2:

Poor signal transmission.

Solution:

Check the cables for continuity and
make sure that connections are
wired properly to verify that there is
good signal transmission.

NOTE:

Test the system by removing the
MT108-105 card from between the
source and the destination amplifier.
If problem persists, call ALTINEX at
(714) 990-2300.
