5 Troubleshooting

Unit will not turn on:

Check the following:

• Is the AC Power Cord securely connected to the AC port on the Aurora, and is it securely

connected to a valid, grounded AC Outlet?

• Check the label by the AC adapter on the back of the Aurora to insure that you are using the

correct version for your electrical system. The Aurora is available in 100V, 115V and 230V
configurations.

• Verify that you have pressed the Power Button on the Aurora.

Clicking, popping or crackling noises in your audio:

Check clock master settings. In any digital audio configuration, there can be one, and only one master
clock, or else you will likely experience audible clock errors. All other digital audio devices must be
configured as slaves to the designated master clock. Since the Aurora’s SynchroLock technology
provides an extremely stable and jitter-resistant clock, we recommend setting the Aurora as the master
clock in your digital audio system. If you choose to use another device as the sample clock master,
make sure that the Aurora and any other connected devices are set to the appropriate clock source
setting.

Audio plays back at a faster or slower rate than expected:

This is usually the result of mismatched clock rates and/or multiple clock masters. For example, if you
are playing back audio recorded at 44.1 kHz, but you have set the clock for 48 kHz, the audio will play
back faster and at a higher pitch than expected. Make certain you have set only one device as clock
master, and that the selected sample rate matches the audio source.

No audio to analog outputs:

Check the following elements.

• Insure that the Cable connected to the appropriate analog output port is the Lynx CBL-

AOUT85 or adheres to the Tascam DA-88 Analog I/O pin configuration.

• Set the Meter Selection button to the appropriate signal source, and verify that there is meter

activity on the inputs. Also make sure that the correct signal source is selected for TO
ANALOG OUT from the Aurora front panel.

• Verify that your monitoring equipment is turned on and the levels are turned up to a safe

listening level.

No audio to digital outputs:

Check the following elements.

• Insure that the Cable connected to the appropriate digital I/O port is the Lynx CBL-DIGY85

or adheres to the Yamaha MY8AE96 YGDAI Digital I/O pinout configuration.

• Set the Meter Selection button to the appropriate signal source, and verify that there is meter

activity on the inputs. Also make sure that the correct signal source is selected for TO
DIGITAL OUT from the Aurora front panel.

• Verify that your digital signal destination is configured to receive signals from its AES/EBU

input, and that the levels are turned up to a safe listening level.
