Using FireWire and USB devices with Tango (continued)
Known Issues and Advice (continued)
• Do not forget to connect external power supplies to the peripherals that require
them. Although many peripherals may draw power directly from the Tango
card, other devices require an external power source.
• You may use USB 2.0 peripherals with the Tango, however they will operate at
USB 1.1 speeds.
• When the Tango is installed in a pre-G3 Macintosh computer, connected
FireWire drives cannot be used as the system startup (boot) drive.
• When transferring data from a digital video camera using a FireWire port on the
Tango, we do not recommend using another FireWire device at the same time.
• Do not connect FireWire devices in a loop, nor terminate a FireWire chain;
there are no terminators or ID settings required for any FireWire device.
