The following paragraphs describe what Windows displays after the host connector of the
USB cable has been connected to the computer, and how you can interact with the computer
to reach the goal of getting the appropriate USB device drivers properly installed.

Once the USB “host” connector is inserted into the appropriate receptacle on the remote
computer, the Windows operating system should immediately start the “new USB device”
detection process. The following message box should appear on your screen:
Figure 7-5 New USB device detected message box.
The above message box will display for a period of time, possibly up to a couple of minutes,
while Windows goes through the process of determining if it already has device driver
information for this new device.
If the Lambda 10-3 USB device drivers have already been installed on this computer, then
Windows will usually find them and automatically reactivate them. If the drivers had been
previously installed and then removed (uninstalled), it is possible that Windows is still able to
locate the drivers and automatically reinstall them. Windows may also automatically install
the appropriate drivers if another Sutter Instrument Company instrument with a USB
interface (such as a Lambda 10-B, a Lambda SC, an MPC-200, or even another Lambda 10-3)
is already connected and configured with your computer. If this is the first time the Lambda
10-3 USB device drivers are being installed, it is then quite likely that Windows will display
the dialog box shown in Figure 7-6.
