Unpacking
The following items are included with each instrument. Verify that you have the following:
• DI-710 Series or DI-715B Series Instrument.
• Communications cable (USB ONLY - Ethernet models do not come with an Ethernet cable).
• Power cable (except DI-710-UL and DI-710-UH).
• The W

AQ
Resource CD-ROM.
• DATAQ screwdriver for connecting signal leads to the screw terminal(s).
• Installation Guide pamphlet (included in CD case).
If an item is missing or damaged, call DATAQ Instruments at 330-668-1444. We will guide you through the appropri-
ate steps for replacing missing or damaged items. Save the original packing material in the unlikely event that your
unit must, for any reason, be sent back to DATAQ Instruments.
Installing the Device Drivers (USB Only)
These USB devices require two drivers to be installed (a Serial Port and a USB driver). Ethernet models do not
require any drivers to be installed (See “Installing WinDaq Software and the Dataq Instruments Hardware Manager”
on page 16. to install Ethernet products).
1. If provided, plug the appropriate end of the power cable into the instrument (jack labeled Power) and the other
end into a standard outlet. DI-710-UL and DI-710-UH models do not require an external power source. Power is
derived from the PC through the USB interface. For DI-715B models turn on the power using the Power Switch.
The Mode LED will be on when power is applied.
2. With your computer powered, Windows running, and all other applications closed, plug the appropriate end of
the supplied USB communications cable into the USB port (labeled
Interface ) on the rear panel of the instru-
ment. Connect the other end of this cable to one of your computer's USB ports.
Note: If using a USB hub with a DI-710-UH or DI-710-UL use a powered USB hub—non-powered USB hubs
may not have sufficient power to run the instrument.
3. The addition of this new piece of hardware will be “sensed” by Windows and the “Found New Hardware Wiz-
ard” will automatically be launched, anticipating the installation of a device driver for the new hardware. If the
Wizard asks “Can Windows connect to Windows Update to search for software?” select “No, not this time” and
click on the Next button.
4. Insert The W

and DI-715B. If your Windows auto play feature is enabled, the W

Software Installation will start. Click
on the Exit button to leave the installation.
5. Click through the defaults. When completed, the “Found New Hardware Wizard” will run again - and again you
should click through the defaults until you exit the Wizard. The DI-710 and DI-715B USB models require two
drivers to be installed, a Serial Port and a USB driver. This will look like two instruments are installed when
there is only one.
