  225   Fri May 13 13:24:42 2016 Patrick Coleman-SmithAn idea that might help when everything grinds to a haltWhen using the T9 system and running with
too much rate in one FEE64 so the system
is unbalanced.

  268   Wed Jun 1 12:14:08 2016 Patrick Coleman-Smith[HowTo] React to "Check Clock Status => FEE64 Failure"If there are more than one failures then check
how they map to the MACB HDMI connections.
 Are they all connected to the just one MACB
