Lexicon
Installing the Hardware and Software
Note
Only Lexicon TDM cards can be used with NuVerb. Cards from other manufacturers are
incompatible and can damage your application hardware.
Precautions
•
Be sure your Macintosh is turned off and unplugged.
•
Before handling NuVerb cards, NuVerb TDM modules, or other NuBus cards, discharge
any static electricity that may be on your clothes or body by touching a grounded metal
surface, such as the power supply case inside your Macintosh.
•
Handle cards only by their edges, as you would a CD. Be careful to avoid touching the pins
on the bottom edge of the cards.
•
Save the anti-static bags containing your NuVerb card and NuVerb TDM module. These
special bags prevent static electricity from damaging sensitive electronic components on
the cards. Always store your cards in these anti-static bags when the cards are removed
from the Macintosh.
•
Put the anti-static bags containing the cards near your Macintosh to avoid having to walk
around with a card after it is removed from its bag (and generating static electricity).
Depending on your studio setup, installation of NuVerb TDM hardware and software will
probably take about 20 minutes. Please read through the entire procedure before you actually
start to perform the installation.
