Eds Not Setup: The PARIS Wiki

Q: Hi Everyone,

This is my first time posting and I really could use some help. I just installed
a 2nd EDS card and I am getting this message:

"Your EDS cards are not setup correctly and play back may not be correct"

I followed the directions(pictures) as found in a FAQ document I found on
the Internet. I also oriented all the red strips on the cables toward the
back of the computer as described in the manual. My MEC is plugged into the
card closest to the video card and there are 2 slots vacant between the video
card and first EDS.

Anyone know how to fix this? Thanks for your help.

A: It is extremely easy to get the ribbons attached being one pin off,
remove and re-seat the ribbon connectors making sure that the pin
alignment is correct. If the ribbons have not been used in a while,
try pulling them on and off the cards a few times to burnish the
connections. The integrity of the ribbon connections is vital for the
smooth operation of Paris.

Q: David,

You called this one right! I had one ribbon cable one pin off...message gone.
Thanks a lot! I never even considered that as an option. I may not have caught
it for a while.

Michael
