X3-10M Not Work Correctly

Two week ago, my company have bought X3-10M with eInstrument PC. I tried an example program that have compiled on Bcb 11 (Snap).
When I run it, First time, i need to open board X3-10M, and then load logic configuration to the board (x3_10m_r3.bit). When logic configuration loading have done, i set the board setting parameter :source clock from internal with output varying about 5 - 1000 KHz, trigger from software with auto trigger, Packet size 0x10000, one active channel (Ch0) with mode 0. When i start streaming, logging, and then stop streaming. Then BinView automatically display the result file data.bin that have been logged. BinView always show the same result (same graphic) although input channel and output clock i changed. (Note : BinView always refers to path where new data have been saved)
My question is :
1. Why data.bin that show in BinView always have the same result? (for
information : open and load configuration have successfully loaded, and
when direct data available, this handle DirectDataAvailable function is
called but buffer always filled with the same data although analog signal
input have changed)
2. Are logic image (x3_10m_r3.bit) that i have load to X3-10M is true for
my tried purpose using snap?
3. I have tried to make custom program, it same with snap source code, but
the different is, when data available (not direct data available), i use
this code :
void ApplicationIo::HandleDataAvailable(PacketStreamDataEvent & Event)
{
if (Stopped)
return;
// User Modified
static Buffer Packet;

Log("Data Available");

Event.Sender->Recv(Packet);

Log("Packet Received");

UI->Status("Packet Received");

IntegerDG Packet_DG(Packet);

if (Settings.LoggerEnable || Settings.PlotEnable)
if (FBlockCount < BlocksToLog)
Logger.Log(Packet_DG.Ptr(), Packet_DG.SizeInInts());

}

why the log result still same too although signal input have changed?

I always wait your suggestion for my problem. Thank You

We have released new software and firmware to our beta site. This code has been tested recently and is known to work. Please download this code and firmware and retest. It can be downloaded using our InstallFromWeb applet as described at http://www.iidsp.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=433&highlight=beta.

I think this will take care of your problem.

Even though the version system reports that you have the latest, please download the latest, install and test it. Be sure to select the Transfer | Fetch Beta Products from the menu to insure that you retreive the latest candidate release files.

When testing, insure that you use the new firmware image located in the Hardware\Images subfolder.

First, insure that you are applying a proper input signal, to the appropriate pins on the JP1 MDR68 front-panel connector. Be sure that your signal source is a differential signal +/- 1Vp-p and that it is being applied to pins 29+ and 63- of the MDR68. It is best if you're using our terminal breakout connector or ideally our 67062 COAX Breakout (differential). Try other channels as well, to insure that this is not a channel-specific issue.

If this does not help, send me the BinView ,bin and .bdd files for analysis.

Try downloading the 10M files manually from http://www.innovative-dsp.com/cgi-bin/dl6.cgi?product=X3-10M

Dear Mr. Jim,

I use 67060 (COAX Breakout) connector to apply our input signal. And I have try another channel, but we have the same result. Can you give me guide to translate sample from Integer datagram to voltage.

The routine below illustrates analysis of data received from the X3-10M

I have reviewed the binview data and I cannot determine the cause of the problem with the available information. It appears that either your X3-10M is defective, or you have a bad cable or you are not injecting a proper signal.

Please inject a 100 kHz, +/- 1Vp-p sine wave into all eight channels (one-at-a time if necessary) and run the supplied Snap example code to acquire data. Examine it with BinView. Do all eight channels behave identically? Please post a zip file containing the bin/bdd files for review.

Please provide the complete firmware version information reported by Snap.

If that does not reveal anything, I will send another coax cable assembly and/or MDR68/terminal breakout so that we can determine if the cabling is the culprit. If that still doesn't work, we will try replacing the module.
