There is a little bit of a bug in the new beta Firewire driver (v3.4.0.4877) 
that prevents it from "remembering" the sampling rate if you are using 96 KHz 
or 192 KHz SR rates on Windows XP when PowerSDR or the radio is shut down.

Try using the SVN version in \branches\test and see if that keeps the radio 
from switching back to 48 KHz.  Eric added some logic in the init process that 
should correct that problem.  Please let us know how that is working for you.

Thanks Tim...

Sorry if I wasn't clear enough regarding question No. 2...

I am facing the same problem as you mentioned few days ago (I just found out)...

I set Firewire driver to Sample Rate 96 kHz and Buffer Size to 1024... Bu 
something is resetting the sampling rate of the Firewire driver to the default 
48 KHz rather than leaving it at the last sampling rate used if the sampling 
rate was either 96 or 192 KHz.  Sampling rate in Firewire driver is not stable 
and it looks that is resetting time to time... Using Win XP SP3 (32bit)

Robert,

Welcome to the club.

I'll answer the last question first.

Ed (W2RF) has not updated his branch to support the new driver.  Only version 
1.16.2 (released), the SVN Trunk and the SVN branch TEST have support for the 
new driver.  It is up to the individuals who host a branch to update their code 
to support new drivers and firmware.

Question 2: I am not sure I fully understand your question about sampling rate. 
 What do you mean by setting the rate in BUS?

Hello

New to Flex... happy owner of new Flex-5000A, not on the air yet, preparing PC 
and installing drivers and software to get radio on the air

I noticed the the last flex driver is now 3.4.0.4877... I just installed the 
driver and it looks fine with PowerSDR 1.16.2 - BTW how to save sample rate in 
BUS to 96 kHz, it works OK but when I reset PC it gooes back to 48kHz...

Another question.... I tried the the last W2RF branch and I can not get it work 
with the new 3.4.0.4877 drivers? PowerSDR can not communicate with Flex-5000... 
Just wonder what I am doing wrong or is it just the new driver issue?
