Connecting an Avid S3
Hey,
I'm having some trouble connecting an Avid S3 to a new rig and was hoping someone might be able to help. The computer is a new Late 2013 (dust bin) Mac Pro running OSX 10.10.5, Pro Tools 11.3.1 and Eucon 3.3.1. The S3 is connected directly to the mac pro using an ethernet cable. Upon manually assigning the IP address in system preferences (as the manual suggests) it appears to connect. The Eucon software recognises the S3 and displays it in the available control surfaces, but it's greyed out and doesn't allow me to update the firmware or use the surface. Am I missing something? Thanks for the help, Jonathan |

Re: Connecting an Avid S3
Check the manual on this. You may need to use a crossover cable

Re: Connecting an Avid S3
If you're plugging directly into the computer, it may help to power on the computer before the S3, as that's where it's getting it's IP information from. I was given this advice by Mario from Avid back when I was having similar issues.
I still regularly have days where I power on my system and my S3 doesn't connect. Like most things, I've just learned to shrug and work around it. Typically a fresh power cycle fixes it. It's still much more reliable than my Artist Mix...that would give me a fresh troubleshooting adventure every time I powered it on. |
