Hello,

Make sure your interfaces are connected and powered on when running Digitest. Also, confirm that the Sync mode on your first interface is set to internal for the test.

Hello,

Digitest is looking for the SCSI card in the third PCI slot, thats why its giving you the 1220 error. Are the cards working within Pro Tools?

Check the following to make sure your cards are G4 compatible.

d24 compatibility:
-d24 cards that are Rev G (or earlier) will either not be recognized or not function properly (-9162, -6004 errors) when installed in a Power Macintosh G4. Rev G1 adds compatibility with G4 computers. You can verify the revision of your card by locating the letter printed in the lowest oval (there are 3 of them) to the left of the TDM receptacle.

DSP Farm compatibility:
-Verify that your DSP Farm also has the proper revision of PCI Matchmaker chip. Locate the first string of alphanumeric characters under the words “PCI Matchmaker” on the large chip in the center of the card. If the string ends with the letter Q you need to get the card upgraded. QC or QE cards do not need to be upgraded.

Mike

The revision on my d24 card reads "F",so i guess i have to update the chip.I live in Colombia,South America,but i bought my TDM System over the mail,from a guy in the States.What do i do to have my card update,also my software,and have access to the refurbished upgrades?
Thanx again
