Hey,
Since a few days my FM radius is dead for most of the time.
Sometimes it works again, but when I restart my rack next day it’s dead again.

Ive tried several power cablws. PSU is far from beeing overloaded.

Any idea what to check next?

Thanks

Hello nystafa!

Just to clarify: when you say your FM Radius is "dead," do you mean it's completely unresponsive, not even passing CV or generating any sound at all, right?
Also, are the other modules around it working normally, or are you noticing any unusual behavior elsewhere in the rack?
This is definitely not normal behavior, of course.
just trying to gather a few more details to help troubleshoot better. and see if is the case to advice to send back the unit for inspection/repair.

Thanks!

Hey my problem is similar to yours, so I created an account to ask. Has anyone actually solved the problem?

[nystada]

Yeah. The problem occurs when separated from other other modules and in the rack. Tried different power sources and no noise out at all. Though the power on the radio IC is present. I’m mailing with someone from the Koma Team. Keep you posted.

No news so far. Sometimes it works until I connect it with knurlies to my rack. Now it’s not working at all again. Tried it also with rack external power in a testing environment. But Koma tested it and found no problems. So I’ve just had bad luck with this module I suppose.

FM Radius sometimes affects the signal reception error. Sometimes the modules have errors so you have the situation you shared. Fix it immediately to ensure the connection and signal reception work effectively.

It sounds like you're experiencing intermittent issues with your FM radius. Since you've already tried different power cables and confirmed that the PSU isn't overloaded, here are a few suggestions for further troubleshooting:

Check Connections: Ensure all cables and connections are secure. A loose connection could cause intermittent failures.
Inspect the FM Unit: Look for any visible signs of damage or wear on the FM unit itself. Dust or debris can also affect performance.
Temperature: Make sure the FM unit is not overheating. Ensure proper ventilation around the unit.
Firmware/Software: If applicable, check for any firmware updates or configuration settings that might need adjustment.
Test with Minimal Setup: Try running the FM unit with minimal equipment to see if the issue persists, which can help isolate the problem.
Hopefully, one of these steps will help resolve the issue!

Sounds like it could be heat-related or a component on the edge of failing. I’d start by checking the capacitors in the PSU and on the FM Radius itself—sometimes they’ll work intermittently until things cool down or warm up. If you’ve already ruled out cables and overloading, I’d also try swapping in a different PSU just for testing.

It’s a bit like playing snake game: sometimes you think you’re in the clear, then suddenly you run into your own tail—you have to trace the whole path back to find the real cause.

Since you've ruled out the power supply unit (PSU) overload and cables, the issue is almost certainly within the FM radio module itself or its connection to the rest of the system (your Eurorack, I'm assuming).
