PAD VII

 

User Manual

This method is not recommended. 

The USB cable connection is a simple & quick way to establish communication between the tablet and the 

SmartLink C device.

After properly connecting the SmartLink C device to the tablet, the VCI 

 navigation button at the bottom 

of the screen becomes highlighted indicating the communication is established.

 

Note: The USB connection provides the most stable and fastest communication. When all communication 

methods are applied at the same time, the tablet will use the USB communication as the default priority.
