1. Go to the desktop and double-click the AVIDdrive Formatter icon.
The utility is usually located in the Utilities folder. It opens to the
Select Window, which displays bus and drive information along
with buttons for the FormatterÕs main functions.
2. If the drive that you want to mount does not appear in the Select
Window, then click the Scan Bus button.
When the Formatter is opened, it should scan the bus
automatically to identify all the drives attached to the Avid Media
Processor. Clicking the Scan button rescans the buses for any
devices that may have been turned on since the Formatter was
started.
If a drive still does not appear, double-check the SCSI cable
connections, the ID for each device, and the termination, then click
the Scan Bus button again. It might required power cycling the
Avid system and drives.
