All other PCI cards, and CardBus with 15-pin flat connector
When the update fails (status: failure) the flash process should be repeated several times, until
no error message occurs anymore. If the failure message is displayed nonetheless, the inter-
face will most propably no longer work when the computer is switched off and on again. The
interface then has to be re-programmed at the factory. We have invested a lot of work to pre-
vent the system from getting in this state. If it happens despite our efforts, the best advice we
can give is to not switch off the computer! As long as it is not switched off the old programming
of the PCI/CardBus interface will stay active, and you can continue to work with the system
using the old drivers
20. Configuring the Multiface
20.1 Settings Dialog
Configuring the Multiface is done via its own settings dialog. The panel 'Settings' can be
opened by clicking on the hammer icon in the dock. The mixer of the Hammerfall DSP System,
TotalMix, can be opened by clicking on the mixer icon in the dock.
The Hammerfall DSP’s hardware offers a number of helpful, well thought-of practical functions
and options which affect how the card operates - it can be configured to suit many different
requirements. The following is available in the 'Settings' dialog:
•
Input selection
•
Output mode
•
Output channel status
•
Synchronization behaviour
•
Input and output status display
Any changes performed in the Set-
tings dialog are applied immediately
- confirmation (e.g. by exiting the
dialog) is not required. However,
settings should not be changed dur-
ing playback or record if it can be
avoided, as this can cause un-
wanted noises.
The status displays at the bottom of
the dialog box give the user precise
information about the current status
of the system, and the status of all digital signals.
SyncCheck indicates whether there is a valid
signal (Lock, No Lock) for each input (Word Clock, ADAT, SPDIF), or if there is a valid and
synchronous signal (Sync). The AutoSync Reference display shows the input and frequency of
the current sync source.
