Default How to hook up powered monitors using PT10HD

I just a PT10HD rig and I was going to use my Focusrite Octopre as my interface but then I realized I wasn't certain how to hook up my HS8 monitors... any ideas?

What ilok key color do you have and what PT 10 HD version? Its easier if we have the proper info to help.

Where did you get a HD version without Avid hardware?

The Focusrite OctoPre is not an interface. You need an interface that connects via USB, Firewire, Thunderbolt, or a card/Digilink combination(like HD/Native and a 192 IO, HDX card or even Accel TDM cards since you are on PT 10HD

You said you got a "10HD rig", so what exactly does this "rig" include? Any TDM cards, iLok authorization, IO box, etc??
