> F8 (Timing Clock) is a "beats per minute" signal, whose frequency depends on the BPM setting of the sending device (can you set BPM manually on the PSR310 in RC mode?).

Yes. I found out that when i change the tempo via the "Tempo Up Down" buttons, also the number of signals per second changes: At "Tempo 40" i get approx 20 signals/sec in Midi Tools. At "Tempo 240" its around 100 signals/sec. (still F8 and FE signals interleaved but in the latter case much more F8 signals)

> One thing I noticed is that the dot in the BCN44's display flashes continuously (so for instance in "P- .1") as a result of receiving these FE messages. Does your BCN44 do this as well?

Yes it does. In fact it seems that the dot flashes at the same frequency the led on the soundcard does.

> Unfortunately I haven't been able to see any FE messages in MIDI Tools: apparentlly FE is "swallowed" by my "soundcards" (actually devices connected to the computer via USB) or by their Windows drivers.
> So I find it rather curious that you can actually see FE.
> So which Windows version are you using? (I'm using Windows 7, 64-bit.)

I'm using Windows Vista 64-bit.

> So which firmware version does your BCN44 have?
> You can see this number briefly when you switch on the BCN44.
> Mine says "1.02", which is (as far as I know) the latest (and indeed last!) version.

Firmware version is also 1.02.
