Open Firas-Dhouibi opened 1 year ago

Firas-Dhouibi commented 1 year ago

so i did install the clock generator to my gbs-c board, and in the wiki its saying "To test the clock generator is working, open the GBS Control web gui. Go to Preferences and scroll down to Activate FrameTime lock. Press on the FrameTime Lock button and the console will read "Active FrameTime Lock not necessary with external clock gen installed". and thats what i did but instead its saying "active frametime lock enabled, adjusting external clock gen frequency".

The wiki is outdated, the message you are seeing is correct with recent versions of gbs control. It is better to leave frametime lock enabled even with the clockgen installed now. It should be working. :)

I'm seeing a option in the developer menu "List Options" under the last item "disable external clock generator = 1" would this indicate that my external clock gen is not working? Below is a output of my debug logs

No, your clockgen should be working fine.

Not op, but why is the output displaying disable external clock generator = 1 if it's not disabled? Is this just a bug?

idk either, its displaying disable external clock generator = 1 as well. im at the latest FW version, maybe its a bug
