The Mesa converter does appear to be just an adaptor Im in South Africa, i think the shipping would not make it worth while, but the offer is very kind, thank you. It may even be less expensive to just buy the adaptors from mesa, then agin you would need 3 of them...
Not sure if the firmware for the DB model will flash to the HD card. Ill see if i can make any sense of it from the pin files, have not even looked at that yet -----Original Message----- From: emc-users-requ...@lists.sourceforge.net <emc-users-requ...@lists.sourceforge.net> Sent: Monday, 02 May 2022 14:12 To: emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Emc-users Digest, Vol 193, Issue 2 Send Emc-users mailing list submissions to emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to emc-users-requ...@lists.sourceforge.net You can reach the person managing the list at emc-users-ow...@lists.sourceforge.net When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific than "Re: Contents of Emc-users digest..."

Message-ID: <00d201d85ddd$aa772440$ff656cc0$@gmail.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" HI Is this possible? For example, can I connect a 7i77 + 7i74 to a 7i80HD using a special cable? I see there is a converter board on Mesa's website, but I only realised now that I messed u when ordering, and also the 7i80DB's were out of stock. For this case, can I just refer to the pinout config that mesaflash will display? Then again, I don't see firmware for the 7i80HD with say 2x7i77 +7i74. Can I use the 7i80DB firmware?

Do you already have the daughter cards? ie it is too late to swap to 7i33TA and 7i44 ? Both are relatively cheap and in stock. I think that it is possible, as you have too many rather than too few outputs. (as has been pointed out, Mesa has an adaptor, which appears to be entirely passive) Where are you? I can probably be persuaded to do a swap, I have a 7i80DB for testing purposes and a 7i80HD would probably work just as well for that. But postage and import taxes might make that unfeasible. -- atp "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and lunatics." ?
