Brüel & Kjær Production Test USB DAQ Type 3670 – User Manual 8
2.1.1 Connecting Multiple Instruments to a PC
Even though it is only possible to run one Type 3670 at a time on a PC, it is possible to connect more
than one Type 3670 to one PC by using a programmable USB hub to switch between the instruments.
Fig.2.2 Possible setup for multiple Type 3670 instruments connected to one PC
This setup has been tested and verified using a Windows
®
-based PC running the included USB Audio
driver, an Acroname
®
Programmable USB HUB and two Type 3670.
✐
Please note: There is a pause of approximately three seconds when switching between instruments. That is
because the audio driver can only handle one Type 3670 at a time, and will need time to settle.
2.2 Installing the USB Audio Driver (for Windows users)
Type 3670 is delivered with all the necessary software (driver and audio tool) and documentation on
a USB memory stick (Item no. BZ-5089).
Alternatively, you can download the software
*
and manual at bksv.com (go to Support > Downloads >
3670 USB Audio Demo Tool ).
To install the USB Audio Driver:
1) Copy the content of the included memory stick or the downloaded files to your local drive and
unpack the zipped file.
2) Run the setup program:
• If installing from the memory stick, the setup program, bksv_vX.XX.X_year-mm-dd_setup.exe , is
developed for the latest version of Windows. For older versions, see the drivers in the Archive folder
• If installing from the Downloads page, select the driver best suited for your setup under USB Audio
