Just logged into the AP tonight and still not receiving sync over power. Here are the details of my setup:
AP firmware: 14.2.1 cable lengh from Syncpipe to Sync Injector: 8 feet cable lengh from Powerinjector to AP: 15 feet Syncpipe Deluxe is Revision H or H1 Powerinjector is daisy chained from a Syncinjector that is receiving timing pulse (Have a 3.65ghz 450AP that is receiving sync over power from this injector) I don't have any Site Monitor or Base Units to verify if the sync is turned on at the injector but I just received the injector last week brand new. I do have a Sync Box for Aux port I could throw on this AP and see if I can get sync working that way. If I really feel like it I could set the injector up for 24v power, switch polarity on pins and verify that a regular 450 AP can recive sync from this injector. But I am guessing this may be an issue related to 450i On Thu, Nov 24, 2016 at 6:39 PM, George Skorup <geo...@cbcast.com> wrote: > BTW, the GigE PowerInjector+Sync that I have at the NOC running the four > 450i's is the newest I have with s/n 118966.
