Thunderbolt cables are somewhat unique in that they contain signal transmission electronics. For this reason it is
important to practice good cable management, avoid crimping or allowing cables to be compressed. If such practices
are adhered to, these cables should provide many years of faithful service.
Connect a cable from the Thunderbolt port on your computer to either of the ports on the back of the Hilo/TB. Then
turn the unit ON.
2.5.2 Driver Installation
Lynx Drivers and firmware updaters are updated regularly. The most current versions can be easily downloaded from
the Lynx Website: http://www.lynxstudio.com/ > Support> Downloads. Make sure that you choose LT-TB as the
“Product”. Choosing Hilo as the product will not give access to the drivers that you will require for this system.
If you are updating an existing driver, the driver installation program will automatically remove the old driver when the
new one is installed. When installing drivers, make sure that all software programs, especially audio applications, are
closed.
2.5.2.1 Windows 7 (32-bit or 64-bit) or Windows 8
1. On first connection, you may receive a prompt that New Thunderbolt Devices have been attached. Click this
window to have the system connect to the Hilo as a Thunderbolt Device.
2. When the Select Device to Connect Window comes up, Choose “Always Connect”. If there are multiple Hilos
connected at install time, you will need to do this for each unit. (If this is a reinstall, you will not see this
dialog box. Just continue on with the subsequent steps).
3. Locate the LT-TB driver from your downloaded files. The file name will be V2Setup##.exe where ## is the
build number of the driver.
4. Double-click the installation file to start the driver installation.
