Hi,
I'm new to Devialet 220 with an Expert Pro 220. Whenever I take out the SD Card and try to change configuration whenever I reinsert the card I get the message Card Fault conact Devialet.
Strangely, when I updated the softare it worked perfectly for that, though. I'm doing this via a Mac. Anny suggestions?

Whats on the SD card when you put it back in? Should just be the config file.

Hi_Swonlon
The only thing when I put the SD Card back in is the config file. Nothing else. I still get the erros message saying there's a fault and the the Devialet reverts to factory config. Could it be the card? Although I doubt that as it uploaded software without a problem. Am I doing something wrong on the configurator?
I'll try again tonmorrrow.

So their own configurator let’s you make an invalid config file name. Another lazy bit of coding.

Well, after some chat with Devialet they advised me to take out the card, reformat it and then load an older configuration from my account. This, actually, worked. Except when I tried again naming the file Jon's New Network Config it went back to card error so that 20 character limit might be right.
Seems a bit daft for such a sophisticated piece of equipment to have such a software problem.
Still, it is sounding brilliant.

It is an exceptionally sophisticated piece of hardware - brilliant in fact. Software, however... well, not so much.
I also ran into the config filing naming issue. Since then I've just left it with the default dp_cfg.txt name. Good to know that I can actually use of up to 20 characters.

The 20 characters is for the name of the configuration the you make it up in the online configurator. The dp_cfg.txt file will always need to stay as is.
