Connecting and Setting USB

When the instrument is connected to a PC for the first time, the dedicated USB driver is required.

Before connecting the instrument and PC, install the USB driver.

The USB drivers are on the enclosed application disc, or you can download them from the Hioki

website (http://www.hioki.com).

Further, the OS that are compatible with the USB drivers are Windows 7 (32/64bit), Windows 8

(32/64bit), and Windows 10 (32/64bit).

In addition, do not switch the PC to sleep mode during a connection.

CAUTION

• To avoid device failure, do not disconnect the USB cables while communications are

in progress.

• While USB communications between the instrument and PC are underway, do not

connect another USB device to the PC, or disconnect from the PC. Doing so risks

stopping the communications between the instrument and the PC.

• Use a common ground for both the instrument and the computer. Using different

ground circuits will result in a potential difference between the instrument’s ground

and the computer’s ground. If the USB cable is connected while such a potential

difference exists, it may result in instrument malfunction or failure.

Connection method

Connect one end of a (commercially available) USB cable to the USB connector on the instrument.

Connect the other end of the USB cable to the USB interface on the PC.
