Default Can older SYNC I/O be used with PT Ultimate HD Native Thunderbolt 2018.12

Hi,

I have one of the older blue SYNC I/O boxes, not a SYNC HD. I have recently changed from PT HD 10 TDM to the latest PT Ultimate 2018.12 HD Native Thunderbolt box. Am running on a MacBook Air.

PT can't see the SYNC box. I'm assuming this isn't possible as I had to install the latest HD Drivers for the Thunderbolt box, and can't seem to find anyway of getting PT to recognise the older SYNC, but would like to check before I have to invest in the latest SYNC HD box. Though the HD Native Thunderbolt Installation guide does say "You can connect a SYNC peripheral to the DigiSerial port..." (without specifically saying SYNC HD).

Thanks for your help.

As MIKEROPHONICS said, nope.
But you don't need the latest Sync HD (grey/purple.) The blue (looks like older interfaces) Sync HD boxes will work if you find a good deal.
But it has to say Sync HD on it.
