Setup
For more details about software configurations to use the X-48 within a networked
environment, please refer to Section 'Networking'(page 26).
External Drives
External hard drives may be connected to the FireWire or USB 2.0 ports on the rear of the
X-48 to be used as record destination or copy destination drives.
When recording to any external drive, it is strongly recommended to run the
Drive Benchmarking utility to ensure the drive is fast enough for the desired number of
record tracks. For example, while FireWire itself is fast enough for high track counts,
the actual drive inside an external FireWire enclosure may be a low RPM drive, not
capable of high track counts.
USB Flash Drives, “Thumb Drives”, may be connected to an X-48’s USB port. Such drives
can be useful as source drives for copying material onto the X-48’s drive, copy destination
drives for moving material off an X-48, or for software updating. It is not recommended to
record directly to such a drive due to their slow write speeds.
External optical drives (DVD, CDR, CDR/W) drives are not supported.
Powering On / Off
Now that things are connected, it’s time to plug in the X-48 and power it on.
The X-48 is equipped with a universal power supply that is compatible with any country’s
voltage and frequency. It is not necessary to change any power settings when traveling
internationally with your X-48, though you may have to obtain an adapter to the local plug
configuration.
Momentarily press the POWER button on the front panel and the X-48 will boot up. The
boot process takes about 1 ¼ minutes to complete. When ready, the X-48 will display its
track screen on a connected VGA monitor and the currently loaded project with time code
on the front panel LCD display.
To power off the X-48, either select Shutdown from the File menu in the VGA UI or
momentarily press the front panel POWER button. In either case, you will be prompted to
save the currently loaded project then confirm the shutdown.
External Applications
While the X-48 is based on PC/Windows architecture, it is not configured for
general PC use. The Windows Embedded operating system used on the X-48 does not
include general use components. We strongly advise you not to install non-qualified
software on the X-48. Doing so could lead to undesirable results, including X-48
malfunction, requiring you to use the X-48 System Restore CD to restore it to its
original factory configuration.
