Installing the hardware
Install the software before you install your device
The driver needed to run the OM-USB-2404-UI is installed when you install the software. Therefore, you need
to install the software you plan to use before you install the hardware.
To connect a OM-USB-2404-UI device to your system, turn on your computer and connect the USB cable to an
available USB port on the computer or to an external USB hub connected to the computer. Connect the other
end of the USB cable to the USB connector on the device. No external power is required.
When you connect the device for the first time, a
Found New Hardware
dialog opens when the operating
system detects the device. The dialog closes after the device is installed.
The OM-USB-2404-UI LED blinks continuously to indicate that the device is initialized and receiving power.
