Authorizing DigiTranslator 2.0 or Higher
with an iLok and a License Card
License Cards are specific to each plug-in or software op-
tion. You will receive the appropriate License Cards for
the plug-ins that you purchase. License Cards have a
small punch-out plastic chip called a GSM cutout.
To authorize DigiTranslator 2.0 or higher with iLok:
1 Insert the iLok into an available USB port on your
computer.
2 Launch Pro Tools. You will be prompted to authorize
any installed unauthorized plug-ins or software options.
3 Follow the on-screen instructions until you are
prompted to insert the License Card into the iLok.
4 Separate the GSM cutout from the larger protective
card by pulling it up and out with your thumb. Do not
force the cutout down with your finger.
5 Insert the GSM cutout into the iLok. Visually verify
that the metal portion of the cutout makes contact with
the iLok’s metal card reader.
6 Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the au-
thorization process for DigiTranslator 2.0 or higher.
7 After the authorization has completed, remove the
GSM cutout from the iLok. (If you have to remove the
iLok from the computer to remove the cutout, be sure to
re-insert the iLok in any available USB port on your
computer when you are finished.)

To activate demo mode for the DigiTranslator option:

Translator in demo mode.
For additional information about iLok technology
and authorizations, see the electronic PDF of the
iLok Usage Guide.

fore you insert the iLok, then insert the iLok into
