Mac

System Sleep is supported under Mac OS X. If the machine is put to sleep with
the transport running, the UAD plug-ins will typically be disabled several sec-
onds before audio stops. Therefore, a change in the audio may be noticed.
Similarly, when the system is awakened, it may take several seconds for the
UAD plug-ins to be reinitialized.

Important Xpander Notes

• Do not remove the UAD Link Cable or the UAD ExpressCard, or power

down the UAD-Xpander while the Xpander is connected to the computer.
Doing so could cause the computer to crash, unless the ExpressCard is prop-
erly powered down (see

“Disconnect” on page 125

).

• Disable system Sleep while the UAD-Xpander is connected under Windows

(see

“System Sleep” on page 126

).

• The ExpressCard slot on notebook computers is non-latching, so it is possi-

ble to accidentally pull the device out.

Select a suitable location for the unit. See

“Xpander Install Location” on

page 122

.

• Do not bend sharp angles into or otherwise kink the UAD link cable. The ca-

ble has a ferrite core and multiple conductors that could be damaged by im-
proper handling.

• The UAD ExpressCard/34 can be used in an ExpressCard/54 slot.

• The UAD-Xpander contains a UAD-1e card that looks similar to the UAD-1e

model for desktop computers. However, the cards are not the same.

Important:

Do not attempt to install a UAD-Xpander card into a computer

slot, or put a UAD-1e into the Xpander chassis. Doing so will damage the
cards and/or the computer logic board.
