recognizing the Emodumeter while plugged in. If your Emodulinx
software brings up a “Emodumeter Not Found” dialog box upon
launch, first make sure the USB cable is firmly plugged in (you will
hear a click) and make sure the Emodumeter is turned on. If the
dialog box still appears, follow these steps:
1.
Right click “Computer” in your Start Menu or Desktop and
click “Properties”. Select “Device Manager” from the left
hand side. The Device Manager will open.
2. With the Emodumeter on, unplug the USB cable and plug it
back in. If you see an item on the Device Manager appear
with a small yellow exclamation point, this means that the
device was detected but there are no supported drivers
available on the PC.
3. Make sure the Emodulinx install CD is inserted. Right click
the device icon with the exclamation point and select
“Update Driver Software”. Select “Browse my computer for
driver software”. Click the “Browse” button and navigate to
your CD drive. Double click the “USB Drivers” folder and
select either the folder called
“32-bit” or “64-bit” depending
on what operating system you have installed. Click “Next”
and your computer will extract the drivers from the CD and
install them to the appropriate location on your PC.
The Emodumeter should now be displayed in the Device Manager
as “USB Serial Port (COM#)”, as shown in Figure 46.
