It means that theTDM ASICs were in the wrong mode (configuration mode) just before putting them into configuration mode.Try to isolate which card is problematic by reducing the system configuration to the minimun card population. In the case of 32-48 track systems, reduce the system to one Disk I/O and one DSP Farm. Swap the Disk I/Os one at a time. If the problem does not occur, swap the DSP Farms one at a time.In one case, a SampleCell II with an older U1 chip caused these errors. The U1 chip on SCII should be R05 (or 01932-1792) or later.
