CONNECTING THE UMAX ASTRACAM 1800 TO YOUR

Important: Install all software first before connecting the UMAX
AstraCam 1800 to your computer.

USB cable. The USB is "hot-swappable." You do not have to turn your
system off before connecting the USB cable.

Look on the back of your computer for the USB port. The USB
port is a small slot 1/2" long by 1/4" wide (see illustration on the
right). Insert the USB cable into the USB socket.
2.
With the UMAX AstraCam 1800 power switch turned off, gently insert the
small end of the USB cable into the side of the UMAX AstraCam 1800.
The side of the connector displaying the
USB symbol printed should face
towards the back of the camera.

Windows will state that it discovered
your new hardware, and is updating the

turn off the camera when connected to the
