3.3 FCA202 CONTROL PANEL
In addition to the device drivers on the PC, a CONTROL PANEL is installed during the installation
process. If you use an ASIO
®
driver, use this software to configure the FCA202. Youll find more
information on the drivers in Chapter 4.1.
In Windows
®
systems, the panel can be accessed from the Start Menu. In the Start Menu,
choose Control Panel, and then look for the entry FCA202. Alternatively, you may find that the
audio software you use has a dialog for opening up the panel. For more information, please refer
to the manual for your audio application.
With Mac OS
®
X, you first have to select the FCA202 in System Settings under the entry sound.
You can then directly configure the card from the audio application that you use. For more information,
please refer to the appropriate software documentation.
