Once power has been applied to the USB DAQ Platform, you can connect one end of the USB cable to
the USB DAQ and the other end to a PC USB port, as shown in
shows the typical
response to connecting the USB DAQ Platform to a PC USB port for the first time. Typically, the computer
responds with a
Found New Hardware
,
USB Device
pop-up message. The pop-up message typically
changes to
Found New Hardware
,
USB Human Interface Device
shortly after. This message indicates
that the device is ready to be used. The USB DAQ Platform uses the Human Interface Device drivers that
are part of the Microsoft® Windows® operating system.
In some cases, the Windows
Add Hardware Wizard
pops up. If this prompt occurs, allow the system
device manager to install the Human Interface Device drivers by clicking
Yes
when requested to install the
drivers.
