F-CONTROL AUDIO FCA202 User Manual

When the installation has been successfully completed,

connect the hardware interface with the computer via an

unused FireWire socket. The hardware inputs and outputs

are now available to you in every audio application

◊ During the installation process, you may be given a

Windows message that the equipment drivers that

are to be installed have not passed the Windows

Logo test. Confirm this message and proceed as usual

with the installation. Your Windows installation will

not be affected by this in any way

2.3 Installation under Mac OS X

With the Mac OS X, you can use the FCA202 immediately,

without having to install additional drivers. Connect the

hardware to your Mac via an unused FireWire socket.

OS X (from version 10.3.9) will automatically recognize the

equipment. The inputs and outputs on the interface are now

available to you in every audio application.

2.4 Hardware connection

Connect the FCA202 to your computer using one of the two

FireWire cables provided. Some computers have 6-pin sockets

which allow the power supply for the FireWire hardware to

be made directly via the bus, while others offer reduced 4-pin

sockets. Depending on the arrangement, there are various ways

in which you can operate your FCA202.
• Operation without a mains adapter on a computer

with a 6-pin socket
This is a typical setup for most computers, which can

provide adequate power supply for the FCA202 via the

FireWire interface. Use the appropriate cable with the

6-pin plug connectors. If your computer cannot ensure

an adequate power supply, use the mains adapter that

is provided.
