Guide If you have any doubts about downloading the SADIE software the first section on the SADiE6 download page has a link to A guide to downloading and installing a new version of SADIE which gives full step by step details for the procedure INSTALLATION TROUBLESHOOTING Every PC configuration will be different so it s difficult to give hard and fast rules about every possible situation that may occur Some guidelines can be offered however If you are not confident troubleshooting the PC installation or are unsure with any of the terms used in this section then you should consult someone who is or contact SADIE customer support You will need to be logged on as an Administrator to install SADIE software and fault find installation It is guite likely that modern operating systems will be able allocate the PC s resources in such a way as to avoid conflicts however conflicts can still occur The most likely conflict is either one of IRO or interrupt or address a k a Port address a k a I O address PCI cards such as the CAT will have the IRO and I O address allocated by the operating system The I O address will be unique but in theory IRQ s can be shared The CAT is happy enough sharing an IRQ with each other or another PCI device However some other PCI devices may not be so happy to do this Therefore if in Device Manager you see another device sharing an IRO with the CAT this is not necessarily a problem However
5. because a shared IRQ is Windows M legal and the IRQ s are allocated by Windows if there is a problem with the sharing of IRQ separating the devices can be very difficult Sometimes a PC will allocate a particular IRQ to a particular PCI slot and thus changing the slot may cause the device to jump to another IRO LRX2 Hardware Installation Guide PCI CAT TIMECODE AND MACHINE CONTROL CARD It is possible to run the LRX2 with SADiE s PCI CAT card in order to add 9 pin ports to the LRX2 s onboard timecode interface however the fact that the CAT card is a PCI card means that this is only possible with a desktop computer and not a laptop The CAT card installation should only be carried out by a suitably qualified person Do not remove the PCI CAT card from its protective packaging until indicated by these instructions Please also observe full static safety precautions whilst handling the CAT card or touching any of the internal components of your computer Ensure that the computer is switched off If your computer has a power switch on the power supply unit near to where the mains lead is connected this should also be switched to the off position and the power cable removed e Remove the computer s lid e Insert the PCI CAT card into a spare PCI slot of the computer motherboard e Other SADIE hardware requires a cable to be connected from the PCI CAT card to the processor card with a PCI CAT SYNC lead which may be supplied
