4.3.1 Power Supply via USB
Note
We recommend attaching the USB cable of the camera directly to the PC main-
board without the simultaneous use of other high power USB devices. Alterna-
tively, use an active USB 2.0 hub. The use of passive USB hubs or the connection
to the USB front panel port may not provide enough power to the camera.
If you plan to connect a larger number of USB cameras to the same PC, the power
supplied by the USB ports may not be sufficient. In this case, power the cameras
externally.
Connecting the camera to power via USB:
1.
Connect the USB cable attached to the camera to a USB 2.0 port of your host PC.
Do not connect to a USB 3.0 port.

If you have installed the camera software, the camera should be detected auto-
matically by the host PC. When Windows XP complains about missing WHQL
