Panel-to-PC USB connection

What this chapter contains

This chapter describes the USB connection between the Assistant control panel and
a PC.

USB connection

The three main functions of the USB connection are:

• The control panel acts as an USB adapter, allowing the PC tool to interact with the

drive. See

Connecting a PC tool to a drive through the control panel

(page

• It is possible to transfer data (for example, screenshots and backups) between the

control panel and the PC. When connected, the control panel appears as an MTP
(Media Transfer Protocol) device on the PC.

• The USB port is intended for temporary service.

Use the USB connector gently. Otherwise the connector may break.
Pull the USB connector cable correctly. Avoid pulling the cable in side ways
direction.
