Connecting Digi 002 Or Digi 002 Rack To The Computer; Connecting Firewire Drives - DigiDesign Digi 002 Getting Started

Connecting Digi 002 or
Digi 002 Rack to the
Computer
Before installing Pro Tools LE software and the
Digi 002 or Digi 002 Rack software, you need to
connect Digi 002 or Digi 002 Rack to the com-
puter.
When connecting Digi 002 or
Digi 002 Rack to your computer the first
time, your computer should be off. If your
computer is on, power it down.
To connect the Digi 002 or Digi 002 Rack to your
computer:
Plug the Digi 002 or Digi 002 Rack into a stan-
1
dard AC receptacle, using the AC power cable
included with the unit.
Digi 002 and Digi 002 Rack are auto power-se-
lecting (100V to 240V) and will work automati-
cally when plugged into an AC power receptacle
in any country.
Power on the unit by toggling the power
2
switch on the back panel (Digi 002), or pressing
the power switch on the front panel (Digi 002
Rack). After a short power-up sequence the Sam-
ple Rate LED and Monitor Mute switch illumi-
nate to indicate the unit is on.
Locate the FireWire cable that came with your
3
unit.
10 Getting Started with Digi 002 & Digi 002 Rack
Plug one end of the FireWire cable into one of
4
the ports marked "1394" on the back panel of
the Digi 002 or Digi 002 Rack. Either port will

FireWire ports
Digi 002 & Digi 002 Rack FireWire ports (back panel)
Do one of the following, depending on your
5
system configuration:
• Plug the other end of the FireWire cable
into an available FireWire port on your
computer.
• Plug the other end of the cable into an
available FireWire port on a FireWire hard
drive connected to your computer. (See
"Connecting FireWire Drives" on page 10.)

Connecting FireWire Drives

Connect FireWire hard drives directly to a
FireWire port on your computer. Do not con-
nect a FireWire hard drive to the second
FireWire port on the back panel of Digi 002 or
Digi 002 Rack because the FireWire ports do not
pass audio data when the unit is powered off.
To connect a FireWire hard drive:
If your computer has more than one FireWire
port, connect the FireWire hard drive to one
FireWire port on the computer, and connect
Digi 002 or Digi 002 Rack to another FireWire
port on the computer.
