Hi I have a CAC-1051 for some weeks now. It is connected in this way:

Quardro M4000 DP => CAC-1051 => DVI-DL cable to HP ZR2740w

DP-6 connected primary 2560×1440+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 597mm x 336mm
2560×1440 59.95*+
1280×720 59.86
@59Hz

However after using the adapter for about an hour, the screen begins to flick in and out to black and then shifts to the left or right. where the image is over-scanned. It usally happens every 10 toi 30mins for about 10mins at a time. If I cycle the monitor or the adapter power. The image is restored.
It gets really frustrating after some time, I know the monitor is not at fault because connecting directly with DP it’s fine. However my setup is that I connect my laptop over mini-DP to DP and the DVI-DL port on the monitor is connected to the workstation on the Quadro M4000.

Is anyone else using it in this setup? and seeing the same issues?

The issue is the same in the reviews here

Thank for the quick reply. I just downloaded the update package, however it requires windows, is there any linux tools available to flash the device with?

For anyone that lands on this post, it’s not imidiate triviaul to understand how to flash the firmware on the devices, one has to have the following ready:

Adapter plugged into the PC/Laptop, both mDP and DP need to be active, USB is really only used as power, but needs to be on a USB port that could charge your phone, but needs to be on the same computer so the ground (GND) is common
Have a monitor plugged in, Wait for the monitor to be detect
open the PriusDPTool (run as adminstrator), the tool should say “Connected”
Click on the EEPROM Tab, and look for the “Binary file” block,
click on “Load to EEPROM”, locate the .eeprom file that was shared on dropbox or else where
The firmware will start to upload to the device, it’s critical that on this stage there is no powerloss, best is if your using a laptop that it’s either full charged or plugged in.
It will request to reboot the device, removing the USB power will reboot the device, cycle the device and the monitor should come up agian
return to the INTEL source tool and click “FW version”
look at the output and you should see the firmware version incremented.

Insert Image Size must be less than < 5MB.
