Sending a DIGITAL -Stereo- Signal from Audigy to HomeCinemaReceiver - Adapter nee

Hello everybody,
I want to connect my Audigy 2 ZS to my HomeCinemaRecei'ver.
Therefor, I wanna use the digital out of the card.
But I don't want any multichannel signal, just oldschool Stereo.
(I already read the FAQs and so on, they just didn't fit my case)
This connection is only meant to be used for music, which has only 2 channels anyway.
So my question now is what of adapter plug I need for this job.
There's already a one "channel" chinch cable that goes from the
receiver to my computer. It has both male endings. (one plug each end)
One end of the adapter plug has to be a female chinch,
but how about the other one? Would a simple small jack plug be sufficiant?`
I really hope you can help me,
for I've searched all the net for weeks now,
without finding any helpful information.
Thanks and Greetings,
Matthias

There're two ways to connect it. One is through the digital output ( which is the same as the front line out on the Audigy and is a different jack on the Audigy 2 series ) or through the front line out.
In either case, you need a stereo mini-plug to phono x 2 connector adapter cable.
In the case of a digital connection, only one of the plugs will carry the signal. For analogue connections, simply plug the two phono outputs into the L/R phono inputs on yer receiver.

Can the microphone jack input be configured for a stereo signal from a tape deck without overloading

Can the Microphone jack input on the HP Pavilion dv6 be configured to take in a stereo signal from a tape deck without overloading the microphone jack, i.e., so it acts as a Line In jack?. The jack is too sensitive to accept the typical signal from a tape deck or stereo tape out jack from an audio receiver, and the incoming sound is overloaded and distorted. Also, connecting from a stereo receiver headphone jack so the level can be controlled to the laptop microphone jack lowers the signal strength but contains a lot of background hum. Any way to configure the microphone jack to have it work as a line in jack?

No signal from audigy 2zs line out j

Hey there....due to a virus, I recently had to format my dri've and reinstall XP and all my apps including software for my Audigy 2 ZS soundcard. Before the format I had my sound and video card connect to my TV to extend my PC display and audio to my home entertainment system. The external speakers were connected through the line out # jack on the rear of the sound card and I could hear everything playing just fine when my TV was on and the correct video signal line input was selected (video #2 in my case), but now I can't hear anything (video is playing back fine on the TV, just with no sound). I've checked my audio settings and I think they're correct - if there is a mute switch for any of the line out jacks in the creative audigy software or in windows' volume control panel I sure can't find it.
I'm sure its a settings thing because I didn't touch the cable connections, and I double checked to ensure they are all connected tightly/correctly as they were before the reinstall.
If anybody has any pointers, man that would be helpful....thanks!

Yup, my digital speakers are connected through the digital out jack.
Device manager shows the device working correctly - no issues or exclamation marks.
Not one ioda of hardware was moved, not one cable unplugged or any other config changed before or after the re-formatting of the hard dri've. Software o/s and applications only.
The soundblaster card properties in device manager shows no conflicts....everything is working fine, but there is a setting somewhere that is being missed I suspect; I have gone ever every option in all of the soundblaster audigy audio control software installed that came bundled with the card, checked online for latest drivers which I've got installed, and did a clean uninstall/reinstall using creative's 6 step-by-step guide. I also checked all windows xp based audio controls even though I've checked the option that enables the audigy controls to sync with the windows ones as you probably already know.
To my knowledge, there is no way to disable line out signal from this card - its there, you plug in your external and go. And with no config changes at all, no hardware changes, no cables unplugged etc. I don't know what else to do. (except email creative support which I did a few minutes ago).
Thanks Katman.

HT1454 Can I send audio and video signals from sling box on my IPhone to a tv using any of these cables?

I have an iPhone 4 and would like to stream the sling box signal from my phone to a TV. Is there a cable that will do this? I have heard that the only thing you can show on the TV from your phone is content stored on your phone.

TV out on the iPhone 4 only display video out for the apps that support v'ideo out. The app description in the App store will say if it supports TV out. iPhone4S will mirror the iPhones screen with VGA or Digital AV adopter.

No digital out signal from Optical Out

I have a Pavilion p6250f PC with a ATI Radeon HD 4200 integrated graphics card. I have it connected to my Onyo receiver through the DVI-D port to the HDMI port on my Onyo receiver. I get a message saying I need to cable the sound separately, so I am using a optical cable from the PC to the receiver, but am unable to get any sound.
I have used the Realtek menu to select Digital Out. Any ideas?

Hi,
Where are you connecting your optical cable to on the PC as you have stated?
Try SPDIF output from the PC using a coaxial cable to a digital input on the receiver. Or, use an analog cable from the back of the PC to the receiver. Then go back into the Control Panel ---Sound---> Playback Tab and set the default sound out device.

Using a SCC counter pulse train to control a SCC digital out signal

I am trying to send a digital high signal on a SCC-Digital ouput module for a certain number of pulses generated by a SCC-Counter/timer pulse train. I have found examples of how to route such signals through PFI12 etc on an M-series board but I am trying to achieve this without referring to the card, just the SCC modules themselves.
I cannot find a way to use the sample clock from the counter generated pulse train to synchronise the digital output.
Is there any way I can do this without referring to the connected M-series DAQ card channels?
Thanks in advance for your assistance.
Cheers.

Hi Phil,
The SCC carrier is only conditioning your signals (i.e. if your signals are not in optimal ranges, bandwidth or need external excitation). The actual counters and all digital lines are controlled directly by the M-series board. This means you will never be able to refer to a counter in the SCC module.
If you route the signals of the M-Series board, is as if you had done so externally from the SCC. Look at this example and might give you more insight to how to implement it (This is software timing). The hardware timing would be doing correlation DIO. Here is an example that needs to be modified to adapt to your timing: http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/epd/p/id/4414

No Center/Sub from Audigy using Klipsch Promedia 5.1 (analog) - NOT a CMSS/digital output qu

I am receiving no center/sub output from my Audigy Platinum card. I have had the card installed on the same system (P4 3.0/ASUS P4800 Mobo/Win XP Pro SP2) for a couple of years with no problems. I recently began experiencing intermittent loss of my center/sub channel. Since I have not changed the connections in quite some time, I was able to rule out an improper output connection. Also, I was able to independently test the speakers themselves and the center and sub are both functioning. Additionally, I switched my Klipsch volume/channel output controller to headphone mode and ran the Creative Speaker diagnostic and I hear four channels (FR/FL/RR/RL) in the headphones (as I do with my front and rear speakers) but I do not receive any signal for the center channel (i.e., no "center channel" speech signal). Based on all of the above, I am certain that the speakers are functioning correctly (I am of course using them in analogue mode), there is no "switch" on the rear of the subwoofer for 2/2., all of my Creative and windows software are configured for 5. audio. I have uninstalled and reinstalled all of the creative drivers and software (using Driver Cleaner Pro in Windows Safe Mode) and reinstalled from my original Audigy CD and then performed a complete Auto Update from the Soundblaster.com site. <Still no center/sub even in diagnostic test!!!!

I want to be clear: I am not confused about CMSS 5. gaming/audio issues; I believe this is purely a soundcard output issue. Despite all the grousing I read about the Creative driver series, I have been most happy with the Audigy Plat card. It has performed extremely well with the Klipsch 5. in gaming, DVD, and audio contexts for several years through numerous driver updates. I know how to configure the settings to get true 5. in any context. However, now I am completely stumped. Is there anything I have overlooked or might try so I do not have to conclude that this great card has just "crapped out" and now needs to be replaced?
Thanks for listening.

Thank you! I had my digital coax connected there with an adapter, but since that can only carry ac-3 and stereo signals im better of using direct 5 chan ( i don?t watch movies on my PC... that?s what the home theater is for) Most games use EAX or some other direct sound, so ill stick with 5. direct analog. who would have thought the digital jack was also for center/sub heh.

Thanks again man!

GB won't accept transposed MIDI signal from digital piano

For some reason I can’t get GB to accept transposed MIDI signals from my Previa PX-120 digital piano. The connections are correct, from the piano to my MacBook through an Edirol UA-25 interface, and the signal is getting through fine. If I want to record with the piano in default C, there’s no problem. But if I transpose at the piano, GB continues to play it through the monitor in C (the master track is set up to the correct transposed key). The signal coming from the piano is fine, as I’ve tested from the interface to speakers, and the same thing happens when I feed the signal through a Kurtzweil MicroPiano and do the transposition there - GB goes on reproducing it as default C.
The odd thing is that I had no problem with the same set-up with a Yamaha piano. This is probably irrelevant, but it’s strange.
Any help very gratefully received as this is screwing up recordings with piano, voice and guitar, when the piano player needs to transpose in some keys.

I’ve been asking myself the same question. The Privia manual is silent on the point and I can’t get a reply from their Support, though will try again. Unfortunately I’m no MIDI or sound technician, so know nothing about how transposed MIDI signals should work, but, having run tests again, the piano certainly seems to be sending an untransposed signal via MIDI. At least, when I connect the piano via MIDI to the MicroPiano the signal sent does not transpose (I was wrong in my first post about this), though I can then transpose it with the MicroPiano. This would be fine if all I wanted to do was then send it direct to speakers. But if I send the signal on to the Mac from the MicroPiano via MIDI, it doesn’t transpose either, and I’m back where I started.
In other words, neither the Privia nor the MicroPiano is outputting transposed MIDI signal, only default C signal, and this is the problem rather than GB. Does this make sense?
I’d be very interested to learn what you come up with re your Yamaha. I’ll get a colleague to try the same thing. And will also try Privia support again. But, meanwhile, if anyone else has any experience or knowledge, I’d really appreciate hearing.

I am having trouble sending an audio signal from my computer (mac pro early 2009) to my TV. Is there some interface or adapter that allows /enables the audio input from my computer to be sent to the TV (R,L signal?) any suggestions

I am having trouble sending an audio signal from my computer (mac pro early 2009) to my TV. Is there some interface or adapter that allows /enables the audio input from my computer to be sent to the TV (R,L signal?) any suggestions

just the audio, eh?. If you were using DVI or DisplayPort that might be different, but for audio alone, it shouldn't be that hard. Just grab a 3.5 mm stereo plug to 2 rca cables adapter. Plug the smaller end into the back of your Mac Pro (or the Front), where you see either the headphone or speaker icon). Alt-click on the speaker icon at the top of your screen to show all audio inputs and outputs. Make sure it's set to Line Out. Plug the red and white end into the audio in jacks on the back of your tv and set it to the correct input. I don't know if your tv will allow just the audio to play. Usually one has to connect up something else, but hopefully I'm wrong. If you were using DVI, or DisplayPort, you'd need an active DVI--HDMI adapter or a DisplayPort to HDMI adapter, but
I don't know for sure

How to output the digital clock and synchronization signal from the NI USB-6211

Hello,
I need to connect the NI USB-6211 to control a digital to analog convertor chip (AD5541). However, this chip requires three input signals :1) Clock input, 2) Logic input or a synchronization signal and 3) Signal Serial Data input (CS, SCLK, DIN).
how to output the digital clock and the synchronization signal from the NI USB-6211?

Hi SaberSaber,
You should be able to use the counters to generate a pulse train that could be used for clock and synch purposes.
Hope this helps. Let us know if you have more questions.

How to get signal from analog input and send it to analog output (real-time)

Hi everyone,

Solved!
Go to Solution.

This is my code in C++, you can optimize it if it looks too messy. This code reads signal from analog input and outputs it through analog output.
To make this code work additional include directories and library directories must be added from NI.

How do i send my raw photos back to canon digital photo professional from photoshop elements 10 ?

Hi
i am trying to send my raw photos back to canon digital photo professional from photoshop elemnts 10 organizer can someone help me with this please.
Thanks
Rich.

Well, your photos aren't "in" in the organizer, so you can just point DPP at the folders where they reside, or you could set DPP as your external editor for the organizer, if you prefer that. Organizer>Preferences>Use a Supplementarty Editing Application.

Measure Frequency of Digital Signal from DAQ-Board

I'm using a National Instruments DAQ board and I need to measure the
frequency of a digital signal from my data acquisition board.
I know the measure frequency.vi (In diagram - data acquisition -
counter), but i don´t understand yours implementation mainly in input
"counter". Because i don't understand the relationship of board channel (for
signal acquiring ) and the measure frequency.vi.
Thanks in advance,
[email protected]

Hi,
Attached is a vi which models your signal, and provides a way to measure the average frequency over a window of time. It converts the signal to a sequence of periods. I usually start with this approach because you can save the data in a much more compact form if your sampling rate is high. Obviously over a specified period of time, if there are no zero crossings the frequency is zero, so I was a little incoherent before. The real issue is the latency caused by averaging. Your frequency measurement is most accurate half your window size before the current time, so smaller windows give you more up to date measurements, but also more noisy. If you need the most up to date measurement, then you have to use the time since the last crossing which is the case where the frequency never goes to zero. That's probably not a realistic situation. If you needed less latency, you could use a prediction algorithm.
Also, there are a number of signal measuring and processing vi's that LV gives you, for instance pulse measurements that could be used to partially implement this or other approaches, but I normally steer clear of them unless they fit exactly due to having to convert back and forth to the waveform data type.
Have fun!

Is it possible to use "Delay Values" to create a frequency signal from digital "Count Edges" -task? (= are the results I'm getting correct?)

Hello.
I have a digital encoder from which I need freaquency information (to ultimately get rpm -infromation). The problem is that this task is inside a loop with 2 other DAQmx -tasks that are using "one sample on demand"-aquisition mode and if I configure this new counter task to be a freaquency task, it only updates once in ~ second which makes the whole loop lag.
I thus created an "artificial" freaquency signal by using "Count Edges" -aquicition mode and the "Delay Values" -block so that I substract the delayed signal from original "Count Edges" -signal. There is a 0,01s delay in the loop and I figured out that if the history of the "Delay Values" -block is 100 samples I would thus get the real edge-freaquency.
I tested this configuration and the results seem to be at least really close to correct but I have no idea if this idea is in any way correct...
This explanation was probably quite confusing so please see the picture attached.
Thanks a lot in advance!

First of all, thank you for quick reply. Unfortunately I don't have the acces to the vi. until tomorrow.
And yes, I think you understood correctly: essentially this arragement measures how many edges have been counted during one iteration. This is how I figured out that this could then be used as a frequency measurement:
1. From the "Edges - Delayed Edges" I get the information on how many edges have been counted during last iteration.
2. I "know" (really I don't?) that one iteration lasts ~0,01s because of the delay in the loop.
3. There is 2048 edges in one round of the encoder so I get the rpm as follows: rpm = (edges - delayed edges)/204,8*60(s)
(If I was using history size of one as you suggested it would be: rpm = (edges-delayed edges)/2048 * 60) However using history size of 10 and taking it account in the multiplication smoothens the response nicely.
But doesn't this arragement count on the fact that the vi runs smoothly and there is no additional lag?
I quess using another loop and notifiers for a dedicated freaquency measurement as you suggested could be worth trying. I just have to first learn how to use them.
If I do use them will the main loop run smoothly and not wait for every update of the notifier? This would be essential since the freaquency output refresses only about once in a second if I use the continious aquisition mode.

Glitches on digital signal from 5751

I am driving four LMH6574MA multiplexers with digital signals from NI-5751 digitizer (running on NI PXI 7953R FlexRIO). There are glithches on all the digital signals (signal frequency is 40 MHz). Is there a way to clean these signals up in software?

Did you place the AI node in the IO Mod Clock 0 clock domain?
If you don't have those analog input nodes inside of the correct clock domain you'll be performing an unsafe clock crossing that will result in glitching.
The user manual walks you through how to add the IO Module Clock 0 to a project. Or you could start from the getting started example.
