RDS Daughter Card Issue

Post by glparker4 »

RDS is no longer functioning via the daughter card when connected to my PCIMAX 3000. When I first connected it, the default output message was transmitting. I can't remember the exact text but the message is similar to "This music is transmitted from PCS-Electronics...visit our website at...". I have read the manual and tried almost every setting to force the PS values to change, but my efforts are futile. Now, the default message no longer transmits. Is there anything else I can check?

I would like to mention that the power connector from the daughter card to the PCIMAX only has one read wire. It appears that there is a black (?) ground wire that only extends 1 mm out of the power connector interface. The black wire does not connect to the daughter card. It's almost as if someone intentionally cut it. I don't know if this is by design or a defect that may be the cause of my problem but this is the state of the RDS card when I received it.

Any help is greatly appreciated
