ICD Flicker Free 2
« on: August 17, 2007, 05:39:38 PM »
Hi-

I got the DMS driver disk. I searched google for the manual and got no luck. I even emailed support at support@ICD.com and *gasp* it was returned as nondeliverable...

 Does anyone have a link or paper version of the ICD Flicker Free 2 manual?

I just bought the hardware. I would like to know what the jumpers do on the board and the pot. I just like having a manual with my hardware, call me crazy. It lets me sleep better at night. And I cant get it to work with my monitor right now so I am trying to figure out why.

The driver disk has its own little screen mode program and a couple of test pics, thats it.

I have had some problems with a badly seated ffv and/or Denise chip.


Thanks for the info. I was a little worried about the seating of the device since I had to bend a capacitor (? looks like a small blue beer can) to the right to get it to fit. That in itself seemed strange to me but... In any case when I use the screen changing program on the driver disk and change the Hz it skews my genlock TV output so I figure that means everything is hunky dory. This only leaves the actual VGA out cable as wrong or my cable to the monitor or the monitor itself.

Quick question:

With the FF/SD installed and presumably working should I see any flicker at all in interlace mode with output from my genlock card?

I am using the genlock for color composite out. I hooked up to a tv and I noticed flicker this seems odd to me. But it could be 'regular'. There is a pot on the FF. I wonder if I should fiddle with it.

Thanks for info I was wondering about that.  There seems to be an enormous dearth of information of FF/SD ...
