Topic: Digiface not powered by HDSPe PCIe
I have installed the HDSPe PCIe and Digiface on my new OSX10.6 MacPro 2x2.66 (Nehalem). It turned out to be a nightmare, because I am not able to get HDSPe to "see" the Digiface. The PCIe card itself is probably correctly installed as I was able to flash it to current version 18 with the FUP (says up-to-date now) and also the drivers (removed correctly and installed again many times, v2.70) seems to be ok, as all the files are in correct location and I can open the DSP panel and mixer. DSP panel says "Error" in the I/O Status Box and the host LED on the Digiface does not light at all (even on power up). I have another MacPro (G5) running Multiface through HDSP PCI. I tried to connect that Multiface through its (old) cable to the new PCIe and the same situation (like no power) occured. I am quite sure that the cable and the Multiface are ok, as they do work with the G5. I have called the dealer and they suggested to check the jumpers on the new PCIe card, but I can not find any info about it on RME web nor here. What are they for? Are there any other things to check out before sending the card back?
