Power Supply of Inspire 5500

Hi, I've recently moved to a new house and i don't know how i have lost the power supply of my Inspire 5500.
I've search over inet for a new power supply with no results.
Do creative still distribute this part? If not, what can i do? The power supply is not standar, the connector is like the one in the keyboards and there is two different transformers embbebed in the same case, so the dealer of the electronic shop where i usually buy said my that that is impossible to find.
I don't want to lost my system for that reason, i've thought to build my own adapter, but i don't have any info about the pins in the connector, voltages, etc.
Could anyone help me?
Thanks.

Jajaja, I've done something similar, I build my own ps/2 to ps/2 wire with a utp 8 wires wire.
For the power supply i took another option, directly to the pc power supply . It's sounds crazy but it works great.
It's supposed that you ned 2 v AC (5 Amp and 400mA or something similar, :P), but i've read on the net that most of the equipments that ask for AC voltage have inside a "rectifier" (don't know how to translate from spanish, :P) that take the AC signal into DC. I've also read that there's no problem using 2V DC because if the signal in the input of the "rectifier" is the DC it only lets the signal pass trough. I've check by myself and it works great, .
I've now it connected to a separated power supply from my pc, only for safety (I don't want to take risk for using this kind of equipment in my main power supply).
I hope that if there's another person with the same problem than us read this, :P.

I have other problem too. I tried to play DVD movie with PowerDVD 6 and Center speaker doens't work if 6 channel or spdif audio is enabled on PowerDVD settings. No speech of any movies. When I change example 4 channel audio speech will play on center speaker. Creative Speaker Settings have 5.1 enabled. In games center speaker works properly. Serious Sam 2 is only game that I have played now and not working but it seems to be latest game patch problem. Latest patch disabled EAX effects.

Inspire 5700 power supply assistance needed.

Hello,
I have the set[Inspire 5700] but am in a bit of bother. The power supply is missing.
I hope to set these speakers up for a friend but am in need of the power supply.
Can anyone tell me the measure of mA for this psu? I know the voltage[15v] but not the trickle amount. I should be able to get a 15V transformer somewhere.
That's it for now...I'ld be obliged to anyone who has the specs for this as I am unable to get this information from the net or on tech suppot docs from creative.

Does the HP 5500-24G-PoE+ (JG541A) come with a power supply?

The documentation is unclear. I need to know if a single hot-swap power supply is included with the JG541A switch. Documentation says "Must Select Min 1 Power Supply".
I would assume it has one, but the image HP has of the back of the switch shows no power supply.
Thanks!
This question was solved.

When you are configuring the switch for purchase it is also a time to select the power supply.

4-pole Minijack-toRCA? (Digitally connect Audigy 2 SZ to Inspire 5500 speakerset)

Hello forum/Creative,
After searching and searching, I'm just confused. And I'm quite an audiophile and I know quite a lot about cable and connections. I still have a problem getting (Dolby) Digital from my Audigy 2 SZ card, to my Creative 5500 (Digital) speakerset. There's a couple "paradoxes" if you will so I hope someone (of Creative) can explain this to me.Because my situation is different than everything I read before.Now the "problem" is that the 5500 digital speakerset uses an external Dolby Digital decoder that is connected to the subwoofer by a DIN-to-DIN cable. Then there are the 3 minijacks (output) that connect from the decoder to the sub. (This also enable volume control per channel via the external decoder/remote) Then there's a coaxial (digital) input that goes from the decoder to any digital out source, which at first was at the coaxial out of my DVD player, which gave the Dolby Digital 5. channel sound as it should. No problem so far.But then I bought an Audigy 2 SZ card for my pc and the problems is that the Digital Out of this card is not a coaxial one, but a minijack output.Strangly however, the 5500 speakerset includes a minijack-to-rca cable, so I can connect the coaxial input on the decoder to the minijack digital out of the Audigy 2 SZ card. Then I got just front L/R channels. I realized the included cable was a 2-pole minijack, with one ground connection and audiostream (Front L/R) What I need is a 4-pole Minijack-to-RCA (. ground 2. Front L/R 3. Rear L/R 4. Sub/Center) , but I dumbfounded so far and I wonder if this cable even exists. After looking in the manuel again and checking the Creative forum and other audiofora, all I can see is a 4-pole minijack-to-DIN (digital din)Here'smy problem with that:st of all my external decoder is connected to the subwoofer via a DIN-to-DIN cable. So if I would get that 4pole Minijack-to-RCA my external decoder becomes nothing more then a nice piece of decoration. Since power from the sub goes to this decoder via the DIN cable (do I wonder if it's a Digital DIN at all)But since this decoder is also used to control volume (per channel) and has the infrared remote receiver + Dynamic Mode setting which can only be set via the remote, I would loose all these functions?I know the Audigy 2 SZ has it's own Dolby Digital (EX), DTS (ES) etc, but I don't want the soundcard output alone and not use the external decoder (again, since this decoder does more than just decode alone).Now a 4-pole Minijack-to-RCA would solve all these problems and I REALLY hope these exists. (Should be possible at least).Currently I have unplugged the 3 minijacks-to-minijacks from the external decoder and plugged them into my Audigy 2 SZ card for Analog Surround. But it doesn't sound good (well at least compared to real Dolby Digital) and via this setup I lost volume control (per channel) functionallity of the external decoder.So please help me out on this. I would really appreciate it.Regards,Felix.

P.S. The 4pole Minijack-to-RCA I mention is a female RCA connector to accept the male-to-male coaxial RCA cable. I also noticed the Audigy 2SZ Quick start manual states to hook up 5. digital speakers to use a 4pole minijack-to-4pole minijack, but this is impossible since there is only a coaxial input and minijack output.So a minijack-to-minijack cable is completely wrong. After (again) checking my Inspire 5500 user's guide, I noticed ONLY THIS manual has the ONLY correct solution to hook up the set. The aformentioned 4pole minijack-to-RCA (female).Creative, why do you supply a useless 2-pole minijack-to-RCA for the digital connection of the Inspire Dolby Digital 5500 speakerset instead of the 4pole one?I mean, you buy the Dolby Digital set to get real Dolby Digital sound, but to get that from your own Audigy (2 SZ) card, you need another cable!! (and when you get it, the other cable will never be used for anything else, since it can only transfer the Front L/R signal!!

Inspire 5500 - Speakers Cut Out?

Hello... I'm using the excellent Inspire 5500 speakers, but occasionally one of the speakers, usually front center, just cuts out. If you pull the power and plug it back in (a simple off/on doesn't work) it'll come back. But sometimes when I turn the system on, or more speakers won't work and I need to unplug it from the mains and plug it back in. Last night, the front left, center and woofer failed to work when I turned them on. 3 plug cycles later they were all kicking again.
Anyone know why this is happening? It's plugged into a fairly new Sony DVD player via the Digital Coaxial input...

Hi there
The same thing has started happening to me.
When I switch on, the front right speaker does not come on. Only way to get it back on, is unplug the power connector from the back of the decoder and then plug it back in. As you say, a simple switch on/off does nothing.
I've been using this set up with a PC for the best part of two years now and I've changed nothing recently. I've also checked all connections and wires are sound and plugged firmly in.
My guess is that it's something wrong with the amplifier in the sub-woofer. Unless anyone else has any suggestions?

Replacement Power Supply

Does anyone know where I can get a replacement power supply for my Inspire 4.1(4400) speaker system? It is a 2VAC 2.9A power supply.

I have the same speaker system but im afraid that i have fried the subwoofer. so i dont need the power supply any longer. I would be happy to let you have it for cheeper than you could get it at a electronics store. if you are interested then you can email me @ [email protected]
and we can discuss it.
cool?

Problems setting up a Creative Inspire 5500 Digital 5.1 System

Hello! I've had a problem ever since i've owned my Inspire 5500 Digital system whereby I havent had any functionality from the decoder at all. I have only managed toget it working with my pc however the sound played fine (after a lot of tweaking using the Creative software bundled with my soundcard) however I havent been able to connect any other devices to it, they just dont work! Even playing music on the pc, I cant use the decoder volume control etc. Therefore my dillema is as follows, I have recently built a brand new pc and want to reconnect the Inspire's (correctly this time!), I have the following soundcard: X-Fi Xtreme Gamer Soundcard with the following outputs on the back of the card:
Line Out (Green)Line Out 2 (Black)Line Out 3 (Orange)Optical
Below is a breakdown of inputs/outputs of the Inspire 5500 Digital hardware: Decoder Audio Outputs Front (Green hole)Rear (Black hole)Center/subwoofer (orange hole) Decoder Audio Inputs Analog Line In CoaxialOptical Other Sockets DIN Now im going to list whats on the back of the subwoofer: Power Supply4 pin AC power input Satellite Speakers Inputs Front left socket for front left speaker Front right socket for front right speakerRear left socket for rear left speakerRear right socket for rear right speakerCenter socket for centre speaker Audio Inputs Front (Green)Black (Rear)Orange (Centre/subwoofer) Other SocketsDIN Now im going to list the leads that I have that came with the set (so in theory there should be sufficient equipment to get decoder functionality): x 4 Pin Mains lead x Line In Cable with the three heads on each end (green, Black and Orange) x DIN Cable x Optical Cable(Obviously all the satellite speakers have their own leads that plug into the corresponding ports on the back of the subwoofer) The last set up, I had the following:
The 4 pin mains lead plugged into the back of the subwoofer (this is correct as this is the only mains input)
Satellites connections into their corresponding holes
The DIN lead connected the woofer to the decoder
the Line-In lead ran from my soundcard to the back of the decoder
Where can I possibly be going wrong? The decoder powered up and played pc music however I couldnt control the volume from the decoder. I tried connecting my ps2 (with optical out enabled in the ps2 settings) with an optical lead running from the back of my ps2 into the optical input on the back of the decoder but it didnt work either!
If anyone could please help and give me a step by step guide to simply putting the right wires in the right places, that would be fantastic. Its really doing my head in!!
Thanks again!

Try connecting Your three connections fom your sound card (green/black /orange) directly into your subwoofer inputs (green/black/orange), then, of course, your five speakers into the appropriate outputs on your subwoofer. I have the same setup except, I am using the X-FI Elite Pro which has a built in decoder, and I believe yours does too. Now, you can also look at the top of this page and click on "support". then choose "product documentation", then go through the product finder, then click on the download link, and after agreeing to the terms, choose to save the download to a location of your choice on your hard dri've. now if you just click to open the file it might not load properly, so just in case, right click the folder, and choose "Properties", and on the "general" tab click the tab at the bottom that says "Unblock" button, then click OK, this manual will give you every detailed way?to hook up your speaker system. I hope this helped. Good luck!

Plotting IVI Power Supply voltage

I am usint SignalEpxress to control to my Agilent N6700B power supply, and I am successfully commanding the instrument and querying the output voltage.
However, I can't seem to figure out how to plot the output voltage on a strip chart. The 'IVI Power Supply' step only seems to offer two output options:
'over-voltage tripped'
'over-current tripped'
It doesn't therefore seem possible to hook the output voltage of the step to a data view strip chart. Any ideas on how to accomplish this?
Thanks,
Aaron

@astibich, just out of curiosity, can’t you accomplish the same in software. Since you’re getting the required values of voltage, you can plot that within the PC. If required these values could then be transmitted to a real-time plotter as well. If you’ve already found a better solution to this, I’d love to know, just for information. It’s the ingenious ideas of people that actually inspire me, like everyone else, to think outside the box.

Wrong Power Supply causing loud buzzing?

I just moved, and forgot to pack the power supply along with my Inspire T5400 speakers, so I thought I would use another that fit. since then the speakers make a horrible, loud buzzing and I can't hear the underlying sounds at all. Is it possible that the wrong power supply can do this? Can I order another one from Creative?

Nevermind, I found the correct P/S and it workds great. I we todd did...

European version of UA-1450 power supply? (230 Volts)

Hi,
I bought Creative Inspire 5+ speakers set in the US, and it came with the UA-450 (model number) power supply (input 20 Volts). I want to use these speakers in Europe now, so I need to buy the European 230 Volts equivalent of the UA-450 power supply, but I do not know the power supply model number. Can anyone who is using some speakers in Europe let me know the model number of your power supply? I think it would help me. The model number is written on the bottom side of the power supply. Thanks.
power supply parameters:
input 230 V
output 3.5 V and 5 A
Thanks.

Hi,
Please contact with your local electronics store and ask for an universal power adapter with those parameters.

T61p : Power supply whistles

Hi,
I have that odd behavior on my 6460-D8G; though I only hear it when atmosphere is quiet;
Whatever I do with my mouse or trackpad, for example, i scroll on a list;
I hear the power supply doing some noise, this noise follows exactly the pattern of my moves.
I scroll, it whistles, i stop scrolling, it stops whistling !
I also found the power supply to emit a different as the screen displays more white.
Same happens when using graphic (not too intensive) applications.
The supply seems normal, i mean it's warm but not "very hot".
Is this something normal ? Could be it something that hasn't been glued properly in the power supply ?
What shall I do ?
Thank you,

Interesting question.
Very short answer:
CPU fan.
Longer answer:
1. I use smcFanControl to control the speeds of my 3 fans in my iMac (2.8 GHz)
2. My "standard" settings are:
CPU fan: 1600 rpm
Hard Drive fan: 1600
Optical Drive fan: 1100
and my "typical" power supply temp is 65° C.
3. I did an experiment and bumped each fan separately up to its maximum speed.
a. Optical Drive fan: from 1100 -> 4400
PS temp: from 65 to 64
b. HDD fan: from 1600 -> 5500
PS temp: from 65 to 68 !! Oops.
c. CPU fan: from 1600 -> 3300
PS temp: from 68 to 42. Yea! But, it is noisy.
4. I then dropped the CPU fan speed to 2000 rpm and the PS temp is now at 52. I can hear the fan, but barely.
I am glad that you asked this question as I have reset my standard to 1800 rpm for the CPU fan. It is quiet and I appear to have a 10° C drop with an increase of 200 rpm.
One thing is clear to me. Apple's default fan speed settings are too low. We should not have to buy smcFanControl to extend the life of our iMacs, the proper speeds should be built into the machine/firmware/software.

Kpo81aa power supply

I recently obtained a used kp081aa docking station for my EliteBook 6930p. However, it does not have a working power supply (or any power supply, for that matter). I am going to purchase a replacement, but want to make sure I get the correct type.
Does anyone know a model or SKU number that I can use to find the right adapter? Or even just the proper Voltage and Wattage so I don't blow up my computer?
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance for your help...

NX 5K Power Supply

Hi all,
I replaced a new PSU I received from Cisco to replace a failed PSU. I issued this command "sh env power" but the new PSU isn't listed and the parameters for the Power show "0". The LED indicator is showing green and I didn't reboot the sw.
I was wondering if anyone has info on why this symptom. I'd really appreciate the input.
Best, ~zK

Nexus 5548 - PFMA-2-PS_HIGH_VIN message on device with DC power supply

Hi,
we got following message on Cisco Nexus 5548 (NX-OS 6.0(2)N2(3)):
2014 Aug 25 06:41:11 MO-BPROD-AS-N5k-1 %PFMA-2-PS_HIGH_VIN: Input Voltage 1023

Strange thing is that power supplies at Nexus are DC (48 Volts), not an AC.
I serach at Cisco Error Message decoder and didn't find anything.
At Nexus 6000 (we have Nexus 5500) System Messages document I found this:
Error Message PFMA-2-PS_HIGH_VIN: Input Voltage [dec] exceeded maximum threshold of 250V for Power supply [dec].
Explanation Input Voltage has exceeded higher threshold of 250V for Power Supply
Recommended Action Please perform a showenvironmentpower'and'showplatforminternalinfo'tocollectmoreinformation.'
But, there is no any useful info from this commands (just first command works).

Hi,
1. The connection setup looks fine to me for a single ended measurement - you may want to connect to 68 and 32 for differential measurements.
3. The example should be ready to take measurements
4. The Data Acquisition card forces the input range to a valid value - 8V is not a valid range and it will be coerced to 10V - this is expected.
5. I am not sure why its not letting you cahnge the channel but a good way to test you hardware is by opening up a test panel in Measurement and Automation Explorer - can you try that and let me know?
Hope this helps!
