Actiwatch Guide to Getting Started 7.2 (July 2009)
The Actiwatch USB Reader is provided with a USB ‘A’ to ‘Mini-B’
cable. To connect the reader, connect the USB Mini-B plug into
the rear of the USB reader and connect the USB ‘A’ plug into a
spare USB socket on the PC. A message will then pop-up
requesting USB drivers (see next section).
Having connected the USB reader for the first time, suitable
USB drivers will need to be installed. These are provided on the
installation CD. A small pop-up will be seen at the bottom right
hand corner of the screen similar to that shown below:
Shortly afterwards, the ‘Found New Hardware wizard’ will be
displayed:
The drivers are provided on the CD so we do not require
Windows Update to search for software. Select ‘No, not this
time’ (as shown above) then click ‘next’ to continue.
