If there's an IO daughterboard on your P2(1), its IO should be listed in its hardware folder... you didn't use the IOenabler.exe to disable IO for XTC with ASIO on another card? Have you tried to remove and reinstall the drivers in Device Manager? If not, or if that don't work, I'd reinstall the Scope software. If that doesn't work, email cw support eh.

Good luck, Sandrob!

I have exactly the same situation, but it doesn't bother me at all.
I have a pulsar 2 an I later added a 6DSP SRB board.
Now the Pulsar 2 card is displayed as Pulsar2(2), but I don't think it will do any harm, or am I wrong?

cheers

this means you have 2 cards and both need to be identified.

Pulsar 2 is the name of the card compared to pulsar (1) or Scope (project)

Pulsar 2 (#1 1st card in the system)
Pulsar 2 (2) (#2nd card installed)
Pulsar 2 (3) (#3rd card installed)

this way you can tell which card's I/O you are using. this is not a problem.

i have one card with io's, second one is xtc board - just dsp.
everything working - no problem at all, but anyway i like to know why this happends?

i guess, because i replaced all cards yesterday and system now see 'fantom card'.
where can be this information?! in registry maybe?

bdv: meni pulsar2 is empty, whille all hardware io's i have i in the meni pulsar2 [2].

99% of XTC cards show up as Pulsars 2(as they are in fact pulsars 2 with no I/Os) however if you can not access the I/O for the XTC in the routing windows then it is simply listing the card #.

the # is to identify card priority.

SFP checks the board order on every startup
first it scans the slots, first board found is assigned (#1)
then it checks if there's an entry in the cset.ini file to 'overule' this. If not it keeps what was found.

in your case both boards are 2nd generation (with the improved IO), so it's probably not relevant at all which one is labeled first and second - and you'll hardly mess the IO connectors as there's only one present

I have 2 Pulsar Ones, a couple of days ago SFP identified one as a Pulsar two and wrote 10 DSPs (!) - what a magical upgrade...

I was a bit concerned at first, but it has come back to it's mind again

cheers, Tom

Hoi Sandrob,

I understand you added a board, and now all IO's have shifted to [2]. This is indeed quite annoying, since all older projects will ask for the other one.

There's a tweak in cset.ini; to change detected board order, add:
[board0]
boardid=1
[board1]
boardid=0

Hope this helps!

xtc board is placed in the first slot and pulsar2 (with io's) is in the 5. slot.
i don't use xtc so i disable xtc in instalation.
now i'm looking in the cset.ini, but i don't see nothing suspisious?

Scope 4 has better board order detection (like telling v1 to v2 hardware afaik), but this Pulsar2 and Pulsar2 SRB confuse it. Add the 4 lines I posted above to override the auto-detection, and to solve the issue.

thanks, atomic and all of you.

i add 4 atomics lines and probelm is solved.

project don't ask nothing. just open same as before, but with sighn [2].
so, this is not a big problem, but unlogic when hardware io's haveÿ[2] if i have only one card with io's.

I wonder, would leaving the card with all the physical i/o as the 2nd card in the system increase stdm traffic?
