check failed: egetfn (setport): corrupt object

Running Mac OS 10.4.6, Max/MSP 4.5.7, Jitter 1.5.2

Somebody have a clue on the meaning of:

I'm using the "hi" object to track a USB device (info. comes across

i had this problem (losing devices) too with HI so i choose to use 

very nice and stable. but it's an outside app.
