Terratec ews88 fourum

HI!

I have recentley purchased two Terratec EWS88 cards and break out boxes.

The problem I am having is that neither of the cards came with the EWS-Connect cables to SYNC the cards.

Has anyone got these leads?
Does any body know if i were to buy standard 5-pole and 3-pole connectors that they would work?

and finally If I can get these leads from a computer spares shop and installd them would I BLOW UP the cards? (What is the wiring configuration)

My tech guy seems to reckon that terratec will have reconfigured the connectors so that nobody can coppy their idea, or simply go to a computer shop and just buy these off the shelf, He says if we did do that the we would risk blowing both of them up......... And we don't want that!!

So if anyone is Daisy-chaining these old beauties, Could you please bring me up to speed with this?

Thanks in advance!! nick_e_davis@hotmail.co.uk

Hey Nick, I was reading your thread from a while ago and I'm in that same boat. Now I'm not sure if you ever got that to work, but if you did could you let me know what it is? I purchased 2 cards w/ breakout boxes too, but need that special cord. I read online somewhere about that cord, but the person was very vague with it and I too dont want to risk blowing these things up. Any tips will be helpful!! I cant find this 5/3 pin cord anywhere, i wanted to make one, but i guess the red wire and black wires are different sizes.

Thank you very much for getting back to me, I was actually able to get a cord together and everything works well so I am thankful for you getting back to me and sorry for wasting your time!!!
