To use the Firefly efficiently (or at all) on any computer, it is important to install all the
necessary drivers from the included CD. We advise that users read all instructions
carefully before continuing on to each step of the installation process, as they will be
asked to, howev disconnect and reconnect their Firefly.
Windows XP (with Service Pack 1 or 2)

cess.
2. Connect the Firefly 302 USB to the computer, leaving the power of the unit off.
3. Insert the installation CD included with your Firefly into the CD-ROM drive of your

Firefly Control Panel software also will be installed at this time.
