Testing Digi 002
(Digi 002 Only)
Before you install Pro Tools LE software or con-
nect Digi 002 to your computer for the first
time, you should power up the unit to be sure it
is working correctly.
To set up and test the Digi 002:
1
Plug the Digi 002 into a standard AC recepta-
cle, using the AC power cable included with the
unit.
Digi 002 is auto power-selecting (100V to 240V)
and will work automatically when plugged into
an AC power receptacle in any country.
2
Power on the Digi 002 unit by turning on the
power switch on the back panel. After a short
power-up sequence, the Channel Scribble Strips
on the unit show “Digi 002 Standby,” and the
Standalone switch flashes to indicate Standby
mode.
3
Press the Standalone switch in the upper right
of the top panel of Digi 002. The Channel Scrib-
ble Strips on the unit show “Enter Standalone
Mode?”

please refer to the Read Me information in-
cluded on the Pro Tools Installer CD-ROM.
