I can’t get my DigimaxLt or Digimax96 to send ADAT optical to my Digi002, or Digi002R.

Because the Digi002 and Digi002r does not have wordclock on BNC connectors, the Presonus DigiMax needs to be the master clock source:
Step 1: Connect the ADAT optical cable from the Output of the DigiMax to the input of the Digi002(R).
Step 2: Set the DigiMax sample rate to 44.1k or 48k.
* Note that because the Digi002 does not support higher sample rates, the DigiMax cannot be set to 88.2k or 96k.
Step 3: Be sure your Pro Tools session and the Digi002 are set to use the same sample rate (44.1k or 48k). This is determined when you create a new Pro Tools session.
Step 4: In ProTools’ Setup menu, select hardware setup. In this window, make these two settings:
– Digital Input : RCA=S/PDIF, Optical=ADAT
– Clock Source = ADAT
Step 5: Click OK in the hardware setup window. If the Digi002(R) is locked to the DigiMax as a clock master, the sample rate lights on the Digi002 will have the current sample rate (44.1/ 48) on and NOT blinking.

In ProTools, inputs from the DigiMax will appear as ADAT 1, ADAT 2, etc on the inputs of audio tracks.
