After installation of the software connect the INT202 to
the computer.
Make sure to plug in the Firewire cable in
the proper orientation! If the connector is plugged in
reversed the INT202 can be distroyed because of the bus
power on the Firewire bus.
The power LED at the INT202 may be lit. If this is the
case then the INT202 is powered from bus power on the
Firewire bus. If the LED is not lit then an appropriate
external power supply (available from Weiss) has to be
connected to the INT202 and the power switch at the
INT202 has to be switched to “on”.
The INT202 should now be recognized automatically. In
Windows tell the installation window that you do not
want to check the Microsoft website for drivers and then
let the drivers be installed automatically. Ignore
warnings concerning “Windows Logo Test” and continue
the installation until completed. You will be asked to
install drivers for "Weiss Engineering Ltd. --Firewire Unit-
-" and "Weiss Firewire IO MIDI". There will be two passes
of installation, which is normal.
