Walter,
You have something in the imported database that is causing your
problems. I recommend you open Setup, click on the button "Factory
Defaults" and allow PowerSDR to restart. Then do not import that old
database that was causing the problems.
BTW, uninstalling and reinstalling PowerSDR almost never resolves
problems, since the database is what controls the radio and it is not
removed when you uninstall the software since it was created after the
software was installed.

Hello,
have a little problem with the installation and the sample rate and
Flex5000.
Before I am running of 96kHz no more was possible. Each time I set to 192kHz
I get an major fault, PowerSDR and Driver must be uninstalled and new
reinstalled.
After installing V2.4.4 I was able to run just one time PowerSDR with
success. I imported the old database with the 96kHz sample rate and PowerSDR
stopped with a major fault.
Uninstalling the complete package and after reinstalling the program is
starting. But if I press the Start/Stop button I get a fault "Wrong Sample
Rate". If I am looking into the Setup, there is 96kHz. I set it to 48kHz
with no success. No I can not start PowerSDR anymore. A fault window appear
that no driver is installed.
The program FlexRadio is showing the Flex5000 not more. The driver setup is
not access able. After uninstall/reinstall the same....
Please help.

Betreff: [FlexEdge] Announcing the release of PowerSDR v2.4.4
To all FlexRadio Systems SDR owners:
PowerSDR v2.4.4 has been released and is available for download at the
following URLs:
PowerSDR v2.4.4 Installer:
http://support.flex-radio.com/Downloads.aspx?id=401
PowerSDR v2.4.4 Release Notes:
http://support.flex-radio.com/Downloads.aspx?id=402
PowerSDR v2.4.4 is a significant release with several VERY IMPORTANT
caveats. Please read this message and the PowerSDR v2.4.4 Release
Notes in their entirety.
Seriously, we are not kidding. PLEASE READ THE RELEASE NOTES before
installing PowerSDR v2.4.4
With PowerSDR v2.4.4 there is a new look and feel to the integrated software
installer. It is more streamlined requiring fewer decisions to be made
regarding your radio type(s) and what accessories you have connected to your
PC due to pre-installing all necessary drivers for all radio types. Even if
you only currently use a FLEX-1500, the FLEX Firewire driver will be
preloaded, but not used unless you connect a
FLEX-5000 or FLEX-3000 to your computer. This will eliminate the need to
re-install PowerSDR if you use a different radio type or decide to add a
FlexControl at a later date. Because of this new feature, the PowerSDR
integrated software installer will prompt you to reboot your PC after it has
completed installing PowerSDR v2.4.4.
Regarding new features, this release contains the long awaited streaming
Firewire driver v4.0.0 for the FLEX-5000 and FLEX-3000. This driver utilizes
a brand new streaming architecture that improves throughput performance
(reduced latency) and better resiliency to PCs that experience long duration
deferred procedure call (DPC) latencies. With the older Firewire driver,
long duration DPCs would result in distorted audio; this is no longer the
case. The audio can still "freeze" if the DPC latency is in excess of
~15,000 µS.
Because of the completely different streaming architecture of the v4.0.0
Firewire driver, it requires firmware updates that are *NOT BACKWARDS
COMPATIBLE* with previous versions of PowerSDR. This means that once you
install PowerSDR v2.4.4 you will not be able to use previously installed
versions of PowerSDR unless you revert back to the older Firewire driver and
firmware versions. There are instructions in the PowerSDR v2.4.4 Release
Notes that describes that procedure in detail.
There are no significant changes to the database schema with PowerSDR
v2.4.4 so you should be able to import data from PowerSDR v2.3.5 if the
Strict DB Import Compliance option is unchecked in the
Setup->General->Options tab. You can always use the K9DUR SDR Data
Transfer Utility v5.0 to migrate database data from a previous version of
PowerSDR too.
(http://k9dur.rnaconsultingservices.com/SDRDataTransfer.aspx).
In conjunction with the new Firewire driver and optimizations compiling the
DSP code, testing of PowerSDR v2.4.4 has shown a significant improvement in
CW operation regarding RX->TX->RX transition timing over previous versions
of PowerSDR. These improvements are also applicable to all modes, but are
most noticeable when operating CW.
In the EU, some radios require their transmit frequency ranges to be
modified to meet regulatory compliance. For these radios, PowerSDR now
creates an IARU Region 1 specific band text database (the readout below the
VFO), band edge markers and realigned band stack registers.
There are also other features and numerous bug fixes included with PowerSDR
v2.4.4 that are documented in the PowerSDR v2.4.4 Release notes, so please
review them before installing PowerSDR v2.4.4.
If you have issues installing or operating PowerSDR v2.4.4 with FlexRadio's
software defined radios, please refer to the Release Notes first, as the
answer to your questions may be located there. If you still can't resolve
your issues, then contact FlexRadio Systems technical support by opening a
HelpDesk ticket on-line at http://helpdesk.flexradio.com or by phone at +1
(512) 535-4713 extension #2. Please leave a voice mail message if you don't
get an answer as all of our engineers are probably busy on existing calls.
Opening a HelpDesk ticket is the preferred method for getting the quickest
resolution to your issue.
-Tim
