ADAT CARD ISSUE

Hello again.
I just bought and installed (after several difficulties due to little space in the mpc) the adat card.
Some questions:
1. In the global mode, mps "sees" the adat card, but when i put out the caps, the "out" one blinks red, but the "ins" one doesnt light. Is this normal?
2. In the multi mode, in the outs, i have L/R, 1/2, 3/4, 5/6, 7/8, L, R and 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8. Which ones are the adat outs, and which are the analog outs . (i have the 8out analog card too).
Can i use 8 analog + 8 adat chanels? Total 16, or they are "mirror" tracks?
3. In the record mode, i have adat 1/2, 3/4, 5/6, 7/8. Is this normal? Adat card "gives" 2 ins i think. So i should have 1/2 only!

If someone has the adat card, and works with it, please tell me if all these are normal, as i dont have any other adat interface to check my card with. (i m about to have !)

thanks a lot

everything seems ok

Well, so if i want to sample from adat, i ll have to connect to adat IN and choose adat 1/2 from the "record" mode? Cause it gives me all the 4 groups. (1/2. 3/4. 5/6. 7/8)
Which should i choose?

it depends on which channel you are sending from the source

I hope you did'nt look that beam or light straight into your eye. No joke! It will blind you.

Nah, i didnt. I ve got my eyes, i m ok.
So the fact the the "adat in" input, doesnt light, is ok?
Is it what supposed to be ?

Yea, just the output omits the light. The input of course recieves the data so it will not show any light/beam. Plus the adat format works in pairs. So if you're seeing 1/2, 3/4, 5/6, & 7/8 paired together, then this is more than likely your adat ports. This is similar to the adat output coming from my echo soundcard.
