Chapter 3: Macintosh Configuration 37
If you have a large number of cards or audio in-
terfaces, it may take a while for the DigiTest win-
dow to appear, as DigiTest scans for all cards and
interfaces connected to the system.
3 If a supported card is installed and is not au-
tomatically detected, do the following:
• Quit DigiTest.
•Turn off the entire Pro Tools system.
• Reinstall the cards (see “Installing Pro Tools
PCI Cards” on page 29).
• Check the card seating.
• Check the TDM ribbon cable connections.
•Turn on the system.
• Launch DigiTest again.
4 In the DigiTest window, click Run.
If cards are not installed in the proper order,
DigiTest will display error codes in the status
box of each card identified as being misconfig-
ured.
The more cards and audio interfaces in your sys-
tem, the longer the test will take.
5 When the test is finished, you can view the
test results by doing one of the following:
◆ Click the Get Results button next to a card
name.
◆ Click the Results tab and choose a card slot
from the pop-up menu.
6 In the Results page of the DigiTest window,
click Show Failures Only to display any tests
that failed for the selected card, or click Show All
Results to display all test results for the selected
card.
For descriptions of error codes, refer to
Appendix B, “DigiTest Error Codes.”
Identifying Digidesign Cards with
DigiTest
You can use DigiTest to identify which cards are
in which slots in your system. This is especially
useful if you have multiple Digidesign cards of
the same type installed in your system.
To identify Digidesign cards with DigiTest
1 Quit Pro Tools if it is running.
2 Locate and double-click the DigiTest applica-
tion on your hard drive.
DigiTest opens and lists the supported cards it
finds in your system, showing their correspond-
ing slot locations.
3 Open your computer case or expansion chas-
sis so you can see the top edge of the cards in-
stalled in your system.
4 In the DigiTest window, select the ID check
box next to a card name. The green LED near the
top edge of the corresponding card flashes.
