■
If your computer has only one FireWire port,
connect the FireWire hard drive directly to your
computer and then connect Digi 002 or
Digi 002 Rack to an available FireWire port on
the drive.
4-pin FireWire Cable
Digi 002 and Digi 002 Rack include a 6-pin to
6-pin FireWire cable. Some Windows laptops in-
clude a 4-pin FireWire port. To use Digi 002 or
Digi 002 Rack with these computers, a 4-pin to
6-pin cable is required. Purchase this cable
(model #CS625) through your authorized Digi-
design dealer or online through the DigiStore
(www.digidesign.com).
Connecting Other FireWire Devices to
Digi 002 or Digi 002 Rack
The second FireWire port on the Digi 002 unit is
available for daisy-chaining FireWire devices
such as digital cameras or digital video record-
ers. Even when it is powered off, Digi 002 sup-
plies power from the computer through its
FireWire ports, letting you recharge batteries in
other FireWire devices.
Launching Pro Tools LE
When launching Pro Tools LE the first time, you
are prompted to enter an authorization code to
validate your software.
To authorize Pro Tools LE software:
1
Double-click the Pro Tools LE application (lo-
cated in the Pro Tools folder, inside the Digide-
sign folder).
2
Enter the authorization code in the dialog
when prompted (making sure to type it exactly
as printed, and observing any spaces and capi-
talization) then click Validate.
Updating Digi 002 or Digi 002 Rack
Firmware
When you launch Pro Tools software, it auto-
matically checks the version of the unit’s firm-
ware, and prompts you to update it if a newer
version is available.
If you update your unit’s firmware, let the up-
date complete before disconnecting or turning
off your system.
While it is possible to connect a FireWire
hard drive to an available port on Digi 002
or Digi 002 Rack if either unit is powered
off, any mounted FireWire drives will lose
their data connection with the computer.
This may result in hard drive errors or data
loss.
This cable can also be purchased at com-
puter supply stores. Maximum supported
cable length for FireWire (IEEE-1394) is
14 feet (4.3 meters).
With new Digi 002 and Digi 002 Rack
systems, the authorization code is located
on the inside cover of the
Getting Started
with Digi 002 & Digi 002 Rack Guide
.
With software upgrades, the authoriza-
tion code is located on the inside cover of
the
Upgrading Guide
.
If you get a warning dialog about updating
the Digi 002 or Digi 002 Rack firmware,
follow the on-screen instructions to perform
the firmware update. See “Updating
Digi 002 or Digi 002 Rack Firmware” on
page 25.
