UAD Powered Plug-Ins Manual - 108 - Chapter 10: UAD-Xpander & UAD-Xtenda
Macintosh System Sleep is supported under Mac OS X. If the machine is put to sleep with
the transport running, the UAD plug-ins will typically be disabled several sec-
onds before audio stops. Therefore, a change in the audio may be noticed.
Similarly, when the system is awakened, it may take several seconds for the
UAD plug-ins to be reinitialized.
Important Xpander Notes
• Do not remove the UAD Link Cable or the UAD ExpressCard, or power
down the UAD-Xpander while the Xpander is connected to the computer.
Doing so could cause the computer to crash, unless the ExpressCard is prop-
erly powered down (see “Disconnect” on page 106).
• Disable system Sleep while the UAD-Xpander is connected under Windows
(see “System Sleep” on page 107).
• The ExpressCard slot on notebook computers is non-latching, so it is possi-
ble to accidentally pull the card out.
• Select a suitable location for the unit. See “Install Location” on page 102.
• Do not bend sharp angles into or otherwise kink the UAD link cable. The ca-
ble has a ferrite core and multiple conductors that could be damaged by im-
proper handling.
• The UAD ExpressCard/34 can be used in an ExpressCard/54 slot.
• The UAD-Xpander contains a UAD-1e card that looks similar to the UAD-1e
model for desktop computers. However, the cards are not the same.
Important: Do not attempt to install a UAD-Xpander card into a computer
slot, or put a UAD-1e into the Xpander chassis. Doing so will damage the
cards and/or the computer logic board.
