3.3 USB
The PTC-IIusb is a USB 1.1 device and can be operated in an USB 2.0 environment as well.
The connection to the computer is done with the attached USB cable.
For USB operation an appropriate driver needs to be installed on your computer. This driver is
on the
SCS
-CD that comes with the modem.
Below you find a short description on how to install the driver on Windows XP (servicepack
2). With earlier Windows versions the installation runs in a similar way.
•
Insert the
SCS
-CD in the CD-rom drive of your computer.
•
If “Autostart” has started your webbrowser then close it again.
•
Connect the PTC-IIusb to the power-supply while it is still switched off.
•
Now connect the PTC-IIusb with to the USB connector of your computer.
•
Switch on the PTC-IIusb.
•
The PC finds the new hardware (
SCS
Radio Modem Device) and opens the “Found New
Hardware Wizzard”.
•
To the first question if Windows shall connect to “Windows Update to serach for new
software” you answer with “No, not this time” and then click on “Next”.
•
The wizzard now wants to install the driver for the
SCS
Radio Modem Device. Select the
option “Install the software automatically” and click on “Next”.
•
Next the Wizzard wants to install the driver for the device “USB Serial Port”. Same as
before you select the option “Install the software automatically” and click on “Next”.
•
After successful installation you click on “Finish”.
•
With this the driver for the PTC-IIusb is installed.
The installed driver creates a virtual COM port which is used by the applications similar to a
normal (hardware) COM port.
To find out which number the virtual COM port has beed assigned to, you have to look into the
Device Manager of your computer!
Select: Start
→ Control Panel → System → Hardware → Device Manager. Now click on the
small “plus”-sign left besides the table entry “Ports (COM & LPT)” to see all connections of
your PC. Look for the entry “USB Serial Port” where right besides the COM number is shown.
Enter this COM number into all programs you want to use with the PTC-IIusb.
