Due to the large number of available USB devices, there is almost no limit to the possi-
ble expansions. In the following, USB devices that can be useful are listed:
●
Keyboard for entering comments, filenames, etc.
●
Mouse for easy operation of Windows dialogs
●
Memory stick for easy transfer of data to/from a computer (e.g. firmware updates)
●
CD–ROM drives for installing software
●
Printer for printing measurement results
To install a USB device
1. Connect the USB device to the R&S
DVMS at any time. All USB devices are
Plug
& Play.
Windows
7 automatically searches for a suitable device driver.
2. If Windows
7 does not find a suitable driver, it prompts you to specify a directory
that contains the driver software. If the driver software is on a CD
‑
ROM, connect a
USB
CD–ROM drive to the R&S
DVMS before proceeding.
Before connecting an external device that is not a USB device, e.g. a monitor, make
sure that the R&S
DVMS is switched off. Otherwise, correct operation cannot be
assured.
To uninstall a USB device
► Disconnect the USB device from the R&S
DVMS at any time.
Windows
7 immediately detects the change in the hardware configuration and
deactivates the corresponding driver.
