Windows Problems with the USB Reset
Contrary to the capabilities originally intended for the USB bus, none of
the USB supporting Windows versions available at the time of release
of this manual, tolerates unplugging the USB cable while the applica-
tion program is still running. In the worst case, the corresponding Win-
dows version simply crashes.
❐
Until these problems are fixed by a newer operating system version, you
should avoid to interrupt the USB connection during operation by unplug-
ging the USB cable or simultaneously pressing the MIDEX-8 buttons
“Panic/Cablecheck” and “MIDI Thru” for 3 seconds.
• Always first terminate the running application under Windows before re-
setting the USB bus.
• If you use Windows 2000, you first need to run the “Unplug or Eject Hard-
ware” function on the right side of the Task Bar before you terminate the
USB connection.
