Installing the Hardware and Software
In order to get your NuVerb TDM option up and running as quickly as possible, and to avoid
damage to your hardware, please follow these instructions carefully.
If you are a first time NuVerb owner, unpack the NuVerb Card and the TDM option first.
Verify that you have all of the items shown on the packing list. Fill out and return your NuVerb
registration and warranty cards. Please take the time now to look over the NuVerb User Guide
before attempting to install the TDM option. This will be time well spent.
Make sure that the Digidesign TDM system is properly installed in your Macintosh or
Digidesign Expansion Chassis before you begin NuVerb installation. If you have not yet
installed the Digidesign TDM system, refer to Section B of the Digidesign TDM Bus Software
User Guide for installation instructions. Once you have successfully installed your Digidesign
TDM system, you can proceed with the NuVerb installation.
If you already have a Digidesign TDM system with NuVerb installed, you will need to
disconnect and remove the NuVerb card(s) from your Macintosh or Digidesign Expansion
Chassis in order to retrofit them with the NuVerb TDM option. Remove the NuVerb card(s)
and place them in the antistatic bag(s) in which they were shipped.
The installation procedure includes:
1. Attaching the NuVerb TDM module to a NuVerb card.
2. Installing TDM-enhanced NuVerb card(s) into your Macintosh.
3. Connecting NuVerb TDM to the Digidesign TDM system via the TDM ribbon cable.
