SBIG ST-8300 Manual
6. We’ve finished installing the drivers but now we need to bind them to
the ST-8300. Quit the
Driver Checker
by clicking the
X
in the
upper-right hand corner. If you’re running
Windows XP
then continue
with
step 7
below. Users of older versions of Windows should now
look for instructions particular to their version of Windows in the
“
Installing USB Drivers
” Application Note that can be found on the
CD-ROM or our web site.
7. Now’s the moment you’ve been waiting for. We’re going to plug the
camera into the computer, but not so fast!
First plug the camera into the power source and note that the
Fan
comes on but the
Red LED
does not. The ST-8300 actually has its
internal firmware downloaded to it by the PC at startup. If the
LED is
off
the camera has not been
booted
. Please remember that.
Now plug the camera into the USB port on the computer with the
supplied USB cable.
Remember
which port you’re using because
you’ll want to use the
same port
again next time or you’ll have to go
through this process of binding the drivers all over again. Windows
will crunch for a while and then present you with the
Found New
Hardware Wizard
(
Wizard
) dialog.
8. If you’re asked if it should connect to
Windows Update
to search for
software click “
No, not this time
”, then click
Next
.
9. Now
the
Wizard
will ask you if you want to install the software
automatically. Select to do so then click
Next
.
10. Windows will grind for a while copying the
SBIG ST-402 Loader
driver then show you the
Completing the Found New Hardware
Wizard
page
(The ST-8300 and ST-
402 use the same drivers, so this
message is OK).
Click
Finish
. At
this point the
Red LED
on the back of the camera should be on, and if
you had been watching it you would have seen it
blink
several times
while the PC was
booting the camera
.
