Installation of USB interface drivers
Before you can use the USB interface you must install the USB drivers on your PC. The setup file includes drivers for the USB interface and can be installed manually when running the setup file. The drivers can also be installed automatically by using Windows Update if the computer supports this function.
For detailed information refer to section “Installation guide for ConSoft and USB-Interface drivers”.
All software, USB drivers and installation guides can also be downloaded from the website.
Installation of configuration software ConSoft
All necessary software for configuration can be downloaded from the website of the manufacturer.
For detailed information refer to section “Installation guide for ConSoft and USB-Interface drivers”.
All software, USB drivers and installation guides can also be downloaded from the website.
Description of USB interface ICON-X
The USB interface ICON-Xis powered from the PC´s USB port. There are three LED indicators on the USB interface: “USB”, “PC” and “DEV”. They are indicators to make the understanding of the communication between PC and transmitter easier. Their functions are described below:
- “USB” LED indicates data transfer. It lights during data transfer, otherwise it is off.
- “PC” LED indicates connection between configuration program and PC. It is green only during reading or writing to transmitter.
- “DEV” LED indicates the transmitter connection status. If it’s green, the connected transmitter is detected by the USB interface. Flashing green indicates that the USB interface is waiting for a new transmitter from the same product family, e.g. changing to a new device. When it´s red no transmitter is detected by the USB interface and any sort of transmitter can be connected to the USB interface.
CAUTION!
The installation guide must be read prior to installation.
