I have a digi portserver 2 16 port. When i connect the power, its not getting switch onn. Any idea how to fix my problem.
I am ASSUMING you mean power on, right. Is this an AC powered unit or DC? If it's DC make sure when you connect your volt meter from the - to + terminals that you are getting a +48vdc. If you are installing this in a telecom facility chances are the power plant is -48vdc which would mean you will need to connect the ground side to the positive terminal and the source side to the negative terminal.If you are using AC verify again with a volt meter that you have 110/120vac and that the plug is properly grounded. This is easily done from the female end of the power cord. If that is fine there should be a fuse on the unit check that.Let me know how it goes.
I have an mbox 1,
Hello,
It is a widely known fact that the mbox 1 has problems on MAC. Some people have had success following these instructions:
1) Close iTunes, pro tools or anything that could be trying to use the audio device.
2) Open the Digi CoreAudio Manager. (This app should be running if you're not using Pro Tools, but want to use the mbox as for other computer audio like iTunes)
3) Set the Buffer Size in CoreAudio Manager to 256 (this is the main thing for resolving the issue)
4) Go to System Preferences > Sound and set the output to Digidesign HW
5) Open iTunes, pro tools, audio should work through the mbox
Note: If these steps don't work, try them again after restarting with the mbox connected
Hope this helps anyone looking to fix this issue!
And, if after all that, you're still having problems, try this:
Quit out of all open applications.
Trash the following preference files:
1. Mac HD > Users > (Your User Name) > Library > Preferences > com.apple.systempreferences.plist (delete this file)
2. Mac HD > Users > (Your User Name) > Library > Preferences > com.apple.audio.AudioMIDISetup.plist (delete this file)
3. Mac HD > Users > (Your User Name) > Library > Preferences > com.digidesign.CoreAudioManager.plist (delete this file)
4. Mac HD > Users > (Your User Name) > Library > Preferences > ByHost > com.apple.systempreferences.xxxxxxxxxxxx.plist (delete this file)
Empty the trash, restart and let me know if it's working or not.
They stress (have the audio device plugged in and turned on before you turn your MAC power on. The device does not support the mac sleep function so if the MAC goes to sleep, you will need to reboot.
