Using USB with a VeniceU console
This is the Quick Start Guide for the VeniceU consoles. It shows you how to get
your console and PC/Mac ready to use USB.
The VeniceU console has been tested and verified for USB use with the following
computer operating systems: a PC running Windows® 7 and a Mac running
OS® X (version 10.7 or later).
However, we cannot guarantee correct USB
operation on any other computer operating system.
For full details of console and USB operation, see the VeniceU Operator Manual.
For information on how to use USB with the ‘bundled’ recording software, refer
to the Software Application Guide (part number DOC04-VNUAPPLICATION).
