Sorry to shout but this is driving me insane.

I am working with a cloned drive that used to work with
2 Mecs and WC. Now no matter what I do, I can not
get a second Mec to show up and receive clock. It
doesn't matter if it's at the end of the line or anywhere
else. It doesn't matter if it's internally clocked or externally
clocked. I've changed Mecs, clock cables, SCSI cables
and no changes. I've even tried a reinstall of Paris.
Same deal. =20

I must be doing something totally wrong for this to continue.
The only thing else I can think to try is swapping the last=20
EDS card with another or go down to four. Maybe it's
card 5? Or, triple check the connectors between all the cards
again.

All EDS cards are up and running and play audio with Paris effects.
All 5 cards share 3 IRQs with nothing else.
What else is there?
Sadly,
Tom

sorry for these dumb questions Tom but...

does this second Mec work all by itself...with every card?

are you sure you have Mec #1 connected to Card A ? (where ever that card =
is in your rig)

Deej,
Ya, I've uninstalled, reinstalled Paris about five times total in the =
last day and a half.
I am close to starting from scratch and possibly doing the antipace =
thing.
I'm getting pretty good at it. I have Mec 1 loaded with cards attached =
to what has always
been Card A for three years. Can that change? Paris works fine with just =
that one. I'll try=20
all the others in that position just to see though.

I am close to starting from scratch and possibly doing the antipace =
thing. How could that be=20
the evil that won't allow hardware to show up?
Thanks,
Tom

Hi Don,
I can't get either of the other two mecs to work on any card.
I will check them as card A though. Thanks for the idea.
I have had 5 cards side by side in the Magma for three years.
Will Paris even boot with one card attached to card E and no others?
I thought not. But maybe I've had A and E backwards all this time?
They're the outside cards either way. The sync cable would be backwards
though since they're being daisy chained when using only two.

I'll check each mec individually and try card A as the other end just to =
see.
Thanks,
Tom

sorry for these dumb questions Tom but...

does this second Mec work all by itself...with every card?

are you sure you have Mec #1 connected to Card A ? (where ever that =
card is in your rig)

Sorry to shout but this is driving me insane.

I am working with a cloned drive that used to work with
2 Mecs and WC. Now no matter what I do, I can not
get a second Mec to show up and receive clock. It
doesn't matter if it's at the end of the line or anywhere
else. It doesn't matter if it's internally clocked or externally
clocked. I've changed Mecs, clock cables, SCSI cables
and no changes. I've even tried a reinstall of Paris.
Same deal. =20

I must be doing something totally wrong for this to continue.
The only thing else I can think to try is swapping the last=20
EDS card with another or go down to four. Maybe it's
card 5? Or, triple check the connectors between all the cards
again.

All EDS cards are up and running and play audio with Paris effects.
All 5 cards share 3 IRQs with nothing else.
What else is there?
Sadly,
Tom

Tom, have you done anything to rule out the possibility that it may be a funky
MEC word clock connection, or perhaps the Lucid clock is flakey. Or even
a bad mogami wordclock cable (I know that's a longshot, but anything's possible)
Just a thought.

Hey Rod,
Ya I've been swapping things out to no end just to be sure.
I even had trouble getting it going with internal clock which ruled
out the Lucid in my mind.

The latest news is I couldn't get it to boot at all with other Mecs
being the master. In the process I smoked the original Mec A
because the SCSI cable was half in at start up. I heard a crack
and then the smell of burning chips. It still powers up but it's out
of the picture now. Loaded with modules too.

Now nothing gets it going except maybe the lowly 442. I'll try
that next. I have a local engineer coming over to see what=20
Paris can do. He's very well respected in these parts.
To bad I'm down for the count it seems.

Well here's what is happening.

I looked very closely at the pins on the scsi cables and noticed
a slightly bent one or two on almost half of them (5). I think it's
from being careless about pushing them in. I straightened them
perfectly and yet still no luck with booting Paris. "No interface =
attached
to the Master Card" is the message. I'm only using one mec to test.
I also tried the 442. Once in a while the Magma wouldn't turn on with =
the
442 attached. I think that is because of the bent pins. That's good of
the Magma. I've tried all five cards, removed the A card and swapped it =

with another still no luck.=20

I'm lost in this quagmire now. I'm not even pissed about the busted mec
at this point. I want an answer to what is going on. The default =
project=20
is looking for external word clock so that's my only choice although I
have tried it with no Lucid attached with the same results.

I think I'll call Edmund.

ID on the Master EDS card is it? I have no idea which
cards are what now. It never seemed to matter before.

I am recloning for the 6th time in three days just to see if
it clears some things up. Like Paris booting up.

Sheesh

Hi Don,
I can't get either of the other two mecs to work on any card.
I will check them as card A though. Thanks for the idea.
I have had 5 cards side by side in the Magma for three years.
Will Paris even boot with one card attached to card E and no others?
I thought not. But maybe I've had A and E backwards all this time?
They're the outside cards either way. The sync cable would be =
backwards
though since they're being daisy chained when using only two.

I'll check each mec individually and try card A as the other end just =
to see.
Thanks,
Tom

sorry for these dumb questions Tom but...

does this second Mec work all by itself...with every card?

are you sure you have Mec #1 connected to Card A ? (where ever that =
card is in your rig)

Sorry to shout but this is driving me insane.

I am working with a cloned drive that used to work with
2 Mecs and WC. Now no matter what I do, I can not
get a second Mec to show up and receive clock. It
doesn't matter if it's at the end of the line or anywhere
else. It doesn't matter if it's internally clocked or externally
clocked. I've changed Mecs, clock cables, SCSI cables
and no changes. I've even tried a reinstall of Paris.
Same deal. =20

I must be doing something totally wrong for this to continue.
The only thing else I can think to try is swapping the last=20
EDS card with another or go down to four. Maybe it's
card 5? Or, triple check the connectors between all the cards
again.

All EDS cards are up and running and play audio with Paris =
effects.
All 5 cards share 3 IRQs with nothing else.
What else is there?
Sadly,
Tom

New clone - same symptoms.

"No hardware attached to Master Card."

I had it wired identically as when the drive was cloned.

Magma? Magma cable? DJs mec? Noooooooo.

Unbelievable.

think you have now forund your problem though. I would buy at least one =
new cable and test each cand and MEC with it to see what's working and =
what's not. One other factor is the little ribbon cables that =
interconnect the EDS cards. If these are damaged, not seated or their =
order has been changed in your reconfiguration, this can cause all sorts =
of insanity.

Well here's what is happening.

I looked very closely at the pins on the scsi cables and noticed
a slightly bent one or two on almost half of them (5). I think it's
from being careless about pushing them in. I straightened them
perfectly and yet still no luck with booting Paris. "No interface =
attached
to the Master Card" is the message. I'm only using one mec to test.
I also tried the 442. Once in a while the Magma wouldn't turn on with =
the
442 attached. I think that is because of the bent pins. That's good =
of
the Magma. I've tried all five cards, removed the A card and swapped =
it=20
with another still no luck.=20

I'm lost in this quagmire now. I'm not even pissed about the busted =
mec
at this point. I want an answer to what is going on. The default =
project=20
is looking for external word clock so that's my only choice although I
have tried it with no Lucid attached with the same results.

I think I'll call Edmund.

Tom,

You may have fried the MEC but not necessarily the modules. Defective =
SCSI cables will absolutely cause a Paris system to *not work* =
Straightening them may not work either as they may be damaged inside the =
connector (though when this happens, they usually just fall off). I do =
think you have now forund your problem though. I would buy at least one =
new cable and test each cand and MEC with it to see what's working and =
what's not. One other factor is the little ribbon cables that =
interconnect the EDS cards. If these are damaged, not seated or their =
order has been changed in your reconfiguration, this can cause all sorts =
of insanity.

Well here's what is happening.

I looked very closely at the pins on the scsi cables and noticed
a slightly bent one or two on almost half of them (5). I think it's
from being careless about pushing them in. I straightened them
perfectly and yet still no luck with booting Paris. "No interface =
attached
to the Master Card" is the message. I'm only using one mec to test.
I also tried the 442. Once in a while the Magma wouldn't turn on =
with the
442 attached. I think that is because of the bent pins. That's =
good of
the Magma. I've tried all five cards, removed the A card and =
swapped it=20
with another still no luck.=20

I'm lost in this quagmire now. I'm not even pissed about the busted =
mec
at this point. I want an answer to what is going on. The default =
project=20
is looking for external word clock so that's my only choice although =
I
have tried it with no Lucid attached with the same results.

I think I'll call Edmund.

I think Tom was asking if there was a "3.0" version of the EDS card that needed
to be connected to the master. The answer to that would be no.
Is this what you were asking Tom?
DJ's advice is very important though. I would do it, if you haven't already.
I don't want to sound like a "RTFM" kind of guy, but the Paris manual describes
this procedure pretty well.
It's on page 4 and 5 of the 3.0 version.
It kind of sounds to me like you may not be hooking up the correct eds card
to the master mec.

Tom....you need to hide your default project in a folder, or rename it. Make
Paris create it's own when it boots, based on the hardware it see's. This
is only during your trouble shooting phase. Once you get everything ironed
out, you can put the default ppj back. I ran into this problem when I was
trouble shooting a while back.

Rod,
That's sounds good. I'll try that first. If it doesn't help
I'm stripping down to one EDS/Mec and build from there
if I can. =20

I have been deleting the Scherzo drivers so that there is only
one for each EDS card. I will continue to do that unless you
think I should leave 5 Scherzos for one EDS card.

Tom....you need to hide your default project in a folder, or rename =
it. Make
Paris create it's own when it boots, based on the hardware it see's. =

Guys,
I'm all set with the cables and the which card is A bit.
Rod you were right about what I was asking.

In any event I scaled down to one EDS (Pretty sure that's card A =
right?!!!)
and plugged it into each of my two working Mecs. Paris will boot but
even internal clock was never found nor were the in/outs on each Mec.
The 442 on the other hand works like a champ one card only. I suspect
either all my Mecs are screwy now or the SCSI cables are intermitant at =
best.
It's working fine with the 442 so I'm sticking with that for today.
I'll add my EDS cards one by one and see if that is back to normal.

Thanks for the help and if I need scsi cables what and where to buy them =
would be good info too.

I think Tom was asking if there was a "3.0" version of the EDS card =
that needed
to be connected to the master. The answer to that would be no.=20
Is this what you were asking Tom?
DJ's advice is very important though. I would do it, if you haven't =
already.
I don't want to sound like a "RTFM" kind of guy, but the Paris manual =
describes
this procedure pretty well.
It's on page 4 and 5 of the 3.0 version.
It kind of sounds to me like you may not be hooking up the correct eds =
card
to the master mec.

Did you try hiding the default ppj to see if it would boot up with a MEC when
creating a new session?

Hey Rod,
Hiding the default project didn't help anything. I've never
had 2.?? installed on this comp so I think I'm safe there regarding
drivers.

I am only able to intermitantly get the 442 working as the master.
I think that's do to the scsi cable issue. I need four new ones.
I am unable to get more than one EDS card working WITH the 442.
Not sure why. The ribbons are all wired correctly.

I'm off to a hellish gigging weekend. No more time for hell in Paris.
Thanks for all your input,
Tom

Rod,
I am working from a clone that was totally good with two
fully loaded Mecs. I have to assume the drivers are good.
I'm looking for a good vendor for SCSI cables now.
They're called SCSI 2 right?
http://www.m2cables.com/SCSI2toSCSI2CablesHDB50MtoML6.html

I'm thinking of cleaning the female jacks on the mec and EDS to be
sure all is well. Any sprays anyone suggests? I've got Deoxit.
Good?

Tom, sounds like it probably is a scsi issue. Your running xp right? =
The new
Scherzo drivers are for xp verses 98 not for 3.0 verses 2.x
Come to think of it. you probably whoudn't have had any old drivers on =
your
xp sys drive anyway...never mind.

At least half the times no C-16 was attached.

I'll remove them from the setup until all is well.
I know at least a few times it worked that the C-16 did also.

Stupid question, but did you ever start up without any c16's? If so =
did=20
you see the same issue?

Tom,

I just had some wierd issues at one point, systme not starting, crashin
etc. switch c-16's and it was fine. I'm just thinking start at minimum
hardward (one EDS, one MEC) and work your way up. If you can't get it
consistently with the minimums, it's time to create a new image from
scratch and then do it again.

Wish you were close by...I'd blow off a day to help solve this one. I
know the frustration. this past week I had an all day session (eight
straight hours) with no burps whatsoever. Hopefully you can get it there.

Ya Jeff,
At least half the times no C-16 was attached.
Do you think that a bad C-16 cable could cause these issues?
I'll remove them from the setup until all is well.
I know at least a few times it worked that the C-16 did also.

Tom,

Stupid question, but did you ever start up without any c16's? If so =
did=20
you see the same issue?

Aaron,
Hyperthreading is off. I'll double check though. I'd love to save the =
money
on those scsi cables.

What do you think about Deoxit in the female scsi jacks?

Ya Jeff,
At least half the times no C-16 was attached.
Do you think that a bad C-16 cable could cause these issues?
I'll remove them from the setup until all is well.
I know at least a few times it worked that the C-16 did also.

I don't s'pose it could hurt if they're tarnished. My experiences though =

Start small, test every little component, unless you've got a bent up =

Hyperthreading is off. I'll double check though. I'd love to save =

on those scsi cables.

What do you think about Deoxit in the female scsi jacks?

Ya Jeff,
At least half the times no C-16 was attached.
Do you think that a bad C-16 cable could cause these issues?
I'll remove them from the setup until all is well.
I know at least a few times it worked that the C-16 did also.

Stupid question, but did you ever start up without any c16's? =

you see the same issue?

Intermitant success is the best I've got right now.

I plan to install Paris on another comp, try each EDS
individually and each SCSI cable individually with the 442. If
all goes well or not I will have an answer. Next, try the same in=20
the actual Paris rig without the Magma. If I can get regular
Paris boots there then it's the Magma power supply
or Magma cable. I'm thinking power supply. I always
had all 5 EDS cards showing even when the hardware
attached to them wasn't.

Does this sound like a logical approach to you?
I'm sick of chasing my tail.

I don't s'pose it could hurt if they're tarnished. My experiences =

Hyperthreading is off. I'll double check though. I'd love to save =

What do you think about Deoxit in the female scsi jacks?

Ya Jeff,
At least half the times no C-16 was attached.
Do you think that a bad C-16 cable could cause these issues?
I'll remove them from the setup until all is well.
I know at least a few times it worked that the C-16 did also.

Stupid question, but did you ever start up without any c16's? =
If so did=20
you see the same issue?

Yup. Strip it ALL down to a PC only with video card, one EDS and one =
MEC. Get that flying, add a second EDS.. pull the 2nd EDS, try another, =
etc... do the same with MEC's and cables.=20

Intermitant success is the best I've got right now.

I plan to install Paris on another comp, try each EDS
individually and each SCSI cable individually with the 442. If
all goes well or not I will have an answer. Next, try the same in=20
the actual Paris rig without the Magma. If I can get regular
Paris boots there then it's the Magma power supply
or Magma cable. I'm thinking power supply. I always
had all 5 EDS cards showing even when the hardware
attached to them wasn't.

Does this sound like a logical approach to you?
I'm sick of chasing my tail.

I don't s'pose it could hurt if they're tarnished. My experiences =
though with the issue your seeing have been bad SCSI cables.=20

Start small, test every little component, unless you've got a bent =

them all) I'm having a hard time buying that you have 4 dead cables out =
of the blue though, something caused that if it's the case.=20

Hyperthreading is off. I'll double check though. I'd love to =

on those scsi cables.

What do you think about Deoxit in the female scsi jacks?

Ya Jeff,
At least half the times no C-16 was attached.
Do you think that a bad C-16 cable could cause these issues?
I'll remove them from the setup until all is well.
I know at least a few times it worked that the C-16 did also.

Aaron,

I'm on it.

Yup. Strip it ALL down to a PC only with video card, one EDS and one =
MEC. Get that flying, add a second EDS.. pull the 2nd EDS, try another, =
etc... do the same with MEC's and cables.=20

Intermitant success is the best I've got right now.

I plan to install Paris on another comp, try each EDS
individually and each SCSI cable individually with the 442. If
all goes well or not I will have an answer. Next, try the same in=20
the actual Paris rig without the Magma. If I can get regular
Paris boots there then it's the Magma power supply
or Magma cable. I'm thinking power supply. I always
had all 5 EDS cards showing even when the hardware
attached to them wasn't.

Does this sound like a logical approach to you?
I'm sick of chasing my tail.

I don't s'pose it could hurt if they're tarnished. My experiences =
though with the issue your seeing have been bad SCSI cables.=20

Start small, test every little component, unless you've got a bent =
up input pin somewhere (and I'd light them well and magnifying lense =
them all) I'm having a hard time buying that you have 4 dead cables out =
of the blue though, something caused that if it's the case.=20

Aaron,
Hyperthreading is off. I'll double check though. I'd love to =

on those scsi cables.

What do you think about Deoxit in the female scsi jacks?

Ya Jeff,
At least half the times no C-16 was attached.
Do you think that a bad C-16 cable could cause these issues?
I'll remove them from the setup until all is well.
I know at least a few times it worked that the C-16 did =
also.

Tom,

Stupid question, but did you ever start up without any =

you see the same issue?

Tom, you may find it useful to print out an excel trouble shooting chart =
and check off the items as you tag them good/bad. I find that keeping up =
with 'everything' on a deal like this (IE, never enough time to just do =
it all in one sitting) is just about impossible. Label each 'part', give =
it a proper set of troubleshooting criteria (like say, SCSI cable 1, 2, =
3, 4 or EDS 1,2,3,4 and label each part with gaff tape). If you come up =
on a bad MEC, pull all expansion cards and make sure that's not biting =
you. Don't forget to mark what expansion came from what slot in what =
MEC.=20

Just be methodical man, I know you'll find it.=20

Intermitant success is the best I've got right now.

I plan to install Paris on another comp, try each EDS
individually and each SCSI cable individually with the 442. If
all goes well or not I will have an answer. Next, try the same in =

the actual Paris rig without the Magma. If I can get regular
Paris boots there then it's the Magma power supply
or Magma cable. I'm thinking power supply. I always
had all 5 EDS cards showing even when the hardware
attached to them wasn't.

Does this sound like a logical approach to you?
I'm sick of chasing my tail.

Well I wish I had better news. =20

The comp that was ready for action with this test has a small case so no =
go.=20
What was I thinkin? Paris cards won't fit.=20

I have a couple more to try that are large enough. One is the internet =
comp=20
that was my old Paris comp in 1999 or an AMD 3000 that has no OS at the =
moment .

It's always sumpthin.

Oh well,

I'll post when something turns up to get your opinion(s).

Tom, you may find it useful to print out an excel trouble shooting =

keeping up with 'everything' on a deal like this (IE, never enough time =
to just do it all in one sitting) is just about impossible. Label each =
'part', give it a proper set of troubleshooting criteria (like say, SCSI =
cable 1, 2, 3, 4 or EDS 1,2,3,4 and label each part with gaff tape). If =
you come up on a bad MEC, pull all expansion cards and make sure that's =
not biting you. Don't forget to mark what expansion came from what slot =
in what MEC.=20

Just be methodical man, I know you'll find it.=20

Intermitant success is the best I've got right now.

I plan to install Paris on another comp, try each EDS
individually and each SCSI cable individually with the 442. =
If
all goes well or not I will have an answer. Next, try the =
same in=20
the actual Paris rig without the Magma. If I can get regular
Paris boots there then it's the Magma power supply
or Magma cable. I'm thinking power supply. I always
had all 5 EDS cards showing even when the hardware
attached to them wasn't.

Does this sound like a logical approach to you?
I'm sick of chasing my tail.

Tom, you may find it useful to print out an excel trouble shooting =
chart and check off the items as you tag them good/bad. I find that =
keeping up with 'everything' on a deal like this (IE, never enough time =
to just do it all in one sitting) is just about impossible. Label each =
'part', give it a proper set of troubleshooting criteria (like say, SCSI =
cable 1, 2, 3, 4 or EDS 1,2,3,4 and label each part with gaff tape). If =
you come up on a bad MEC, pull all expansion cards and make sure that's =
not biting you. Don't forget to mark what expansion came from what slot =
in what MEC.=20

Just be methodical man, I know you'll find it.=20

Yup. Strip it ALL down to a PC only with video card, one EDS and =

Intermitant success is the best I've got right now.

I plan to install Paris on another comp, try each EDS
individually and each SCSI cable individually with the 442. =
If
all goes well or not I will have an answer. Next, try the =
same in=20
the actual Paris rig without the Magma. If I can get regular
Paris boots there then it's the Magma power supply
or Magma cable. I'm thinking power supply. I always
had all 5 EDS cards showing even when the hardware
attached to them wasn't.

Does this sound like a logical approach to you?
I'm sick of chasing my tail.

At least half the times no C-16 was attached.
