Case 1: Cannot install the UM-4 Driver

◆ 

Is the USB cable connected correctly?

→ 

Make sure that all USB cables you are using have been connected correctly.

→ 

Disconnect the USB cables, and then re-connect them.

◆ 

Is USB enabled?

→ 

Enable USB on your computer.

If an Unknown Device is not detected when you first connect the UM-4 to your computer via 
a USB cable, it is possible that the USB interface itself is disabled.
Use the following procedure to check whether the USB interface is enabled.

1.

Click the Windows 

Start

 button, and choose 

Control panel

 from 

Settings

. In 

Control panel

double-click the 

System

 icon.

2.

Click the 

Device Manager

 tab, and make sure that there are no yellow “!” marks or red “x” 

marks displayed beside 

Universal serial bus controller

 or the 

USB Root Hub

 below it.

If a yellow “!” mark or red “x” mark is displayed, the USB is currently disabled. Refer to the 
owner’s manual for your computer, and enable the USB.

◆ 

Has an Unknown Device been registered?

→ 

If while installing the UM-4 Driver, installation is halted for some problem such as a cable

being pulled out, the UM-4 will be registered as an Unknown Device, and it may be
impossible to perform the installation again. If this occurs, use the following procedure to
Remove the Unknown Device, and install the driver once again.

1.

Click the Windows 

Start

 button, and choose 

Control panel

 from 

Settings

. In 

Control panel

double-click the 

System

 icon.

2.

Click the 

Device Manager

 tab, and with 

View devices by type

 selected, make sure that 

there is no 

Other devices

. If there is, double-click it, and if there are any 

Unknown Devices

 

below it, click to select them and then click the 

Remove

 button to Remove them.

3.

Disconnect the USB cable from the UM-4, and then re-connect the cable. If the computer 
recognizes the UM-4, perform the driver installation from the beginning.
