SpeedTools™ Device Tuner™

DeviceTuner was initially created to solve the problems of a particular FireWire device’s ability to transfer data reliably over a FireWire bus. Being unable to copy files to or from a FireWire hard disk, for example, is a common symptom of a larger problem: less than optimal signal quality on the FireWire bus. This can be caused by a myriad of factors, but regardless of why it happens, DeviceTuner can likely help.

FireWire troubleshooting education can quickly become quite complex. Therefore, if you have interest in the "nuts and bolts" of how this product works, Intech strongly recommends that you download the Device Tuner User's guide from the link near the bottom of this page.

Important Notes:

1) Currently, DeviceTuner only supports FireWire bridge boards based upon the Oxford Semiconductor chipsets (900, 911 & 922). We will be adding support for additional bridge chips in the near future.

2) Device Tuner will eventually be expanded to support device types other that FireWire for even greater tuning capability.
