USB
CONNECTION
All base unit versions can be connected to a PC through the mini-USB connector and
CP23
ca-
ble. In this connection mode, the base unit is powered through the PC USB port.
Fig. 6.4.1: USB connection
Connection through CP23 cable doesn’t require the installation of USB drivers: when the base
unit is connected to a PC, Windows® operating system automatically recognizes the unit as an
HID device (Human Interface Device) and uses the drivers already included in the operating sys-
tem.
Note
: if the external power supply is not used but only the USB connection, it is recommended
to connect the unit to a minimum 500 mA USB port to allow a sufficient recharging of the in-
ternal battery.

I CONNECTION
The
HD35APW
base unit version can be connected to a PC through an Ethernet or Wi-Fi local
network. The choice of the connection mode, Ethernet or Wi-Fi, and of the relevant settings
must be performed with the HD35AP-S software.
In the connection mode through local network, the base unit must be powered by means of an
external power supply, because the internal battery has a few hours life.
