Tehthered problems

Oleg Covian
I try to tethered my P30 with a Macbook Pro and it gives me (error occurred -7106) . I read the article on phsase one site and it seems that these problems only occured with Macbook Pro. And it can be resolved wth
[color=cyan:wa0m6swa]belkin firewire 6 port hub,
gefin firewire repeater 400 or siig firewire 2 port expresscard[/color:wa0m6swa]
Does anybody have made tested on any of this products? These hubs need to be powered? Wich one is faster?
Thanks

    Try any external firewire-hub with power supply. I think it doesn't matter which brand. I'm working with a hub by sitecom.
    I know this issue only in case of overheating the computer either by ambient temperature or by a problem of the computers cooling fan.
    Try also an additional USB-Fan. That works very well.

    Hi thanks for your reply.
    So you only have this problem when your Macbook Pro overheats? I always have this problem. Do you know if there is any "hub not powered "that works?, so I can shoot outdoors.[/img][/list]

    Unfortunately Apple changed the power supplies of the firewireports. That is the reason for problems like you have. Well, it is necessary to have a power supply on the hub for solving these problems.
    Another reason for your problems can be the length of your firewire cable. Maybe try a shorter one.
    Another trick is to change the powersupply of the back from "automatically" to "battery". Maybe that works.
    And please check, whether your book is unusely hot...

    greez,

    Hello

    I would suggest 3 things.
    1. Go to Preferences - Camera setup - make sure Capture File format is set to IIQ L or IIQ S
    2. On the back set power source to Battery power.
    3. Make sure Capture One version is 3.7.6
