Another stubborn Trinity

[LuGi]

So here a i have another stubborn trinity with the latest dash 16202.

I tried most of the tips & tricks which i could find.

Post out wires - 30,60,90,120
Cap betwen D & GND
RST - Thick wires (black GND)

And i almost always get this result:

It's starts glitching and after a while (time depends on the tip & trick i use) it's ticking like crazy prob. every 0.5s.

Any ideas what to do next?

Chip is not faulty since i did few corona and trinity boards. I use a COMMS cable to monitor COM

You can try this:
-cpu_rst=10cm cool runner wire
-post_out=93cm landline phones cable http://im9.cz/sk/iR/importprodukt-orig/d53/d53f8a25b42935dc2057de33431edeb2.jpg
-rest wires from the DGX package

10cm CPU_RST, 70cm Kynar for POST_OUT. If you get ticking, unplug PSU for 30 secs and try again as per FAQ.

Took me about 3-4 attempts to boot XeLL.

Tried with that setup for an hour and it was always the same..glitching then rapidly ticking :frown: (timing was different on every attempt)

I've been fighting with a Trinity here for the last 2 hours and it's JUST glitched for me with the above. Just keep going with it and unplug for 30 secs when you hear the ticking as per the FAQ.

 

[LuGi]

Darn, let the fight continue then,.. posting results :crossing fingers:

WNYConsoles suggests wrapping the POST_OUT wire around the X-Clamps, so worth a shot too.

I have too a strange trinity.
I use a 11cm cpu_rst and 70cm post_out.
In a last 3-4 hour i didn't get a xell.I make it so what MartinC sayed, if i hear a thick so quick then i unplug a power cable.
I have not lucky.
Any idea?

Leave everything like you have it now except for the: post out wire, change it to 120cm and a thicker wire (I use an ethernet cable wire) and work your way down 5cm at a time until it glitches. It takes patience and a lot of tweaking for some to glitch.

This is what works for me= 11cm black ground wire for cpu_reset and a 90cm wire (ethernet wire) for post out wrapped around xclamp or fan.

i probaly tomorrow morning.

It's work, but more time to search a correct post_out wire long.

Have you solved your problem, and when yes, how ?

 

[LuGi]

Right now im going 120cm kynar and trimming it down.. atm at 90cm - still ticking

 

[Martin C]

Pictures of your wiring would be useful.

Picutres are not resized

RST is 10cm long

 

[Martin C]

Try a standard thickness CPU_RST cable, as short as you can manage.

Don't coil POST_OUT at all.

 

[LuGi]

Did that too, didn't help still ticking after a while.

But just did a nother trinity on dash 15574 without any problems. FU 16202

Yes, it will tick after a while. As per the FAQ, disconnect the power and reconnect after 30 secs.

Try a 55cm standard blue wire on Post Out and a 13CM standard blue wire on CPU RST. Don't coil any wires just wire Post Out and CPU RST as per this post, http://team-xecuter.com/forums/showpost.php?p=717973&postcount=136. Leave it on until it boots.
