HDO USB – connections
With a PC connection,you can control and regulate the HDO from the PC such as start/stop funtion or changes parameters. For the communication options we need a driver installation which is discribed below. For typs of connections, please do not use the same USB port.
The VET HDO/MDSWIN installation card appropriate the drivers for USB and BT1000: They are pre-installed at first! Administration rights are required!

Selection A: USB| Selection B: PC-Bluetooth| Selection C: BT1000-adapter Silicon Labs
