7.2 Connecting to a Machine
1.
Plug one end of the USB
cable into the VS Security Products Degausser or Crusher machine.
2.
Plug the other end of the USB
cable into a USB port on the computer that the VS Security Products Logger program is
running on.
3.
Turn the VS Security Products machine on.
4.
If there is an available Internet connection (i.e. the
computer is connected to the Internet), Windows Vista, 7, 8 and
10
will
connect to the Windows Update web site and install any suitable driver it finds for the serial interface device.
Windows XP
may not automatically connect to the Internet and locate the
FTDI drivers.
NOTE:
If this is the first time this machine has been connected to this computer, there may be a delay as the USB drivers are
installed. There may also be various dialog boxes displayed to the user whilst the USB driver install is being carried out and
the user may have to confirm that the driver installation should proceed. The USB
interface is an FTDI device and there
may
be references to the FTDI driver.
If the machine is not connected to the internet (or is running Windows XP), then it will be necessary to install the
USB drivers
manually. If you received a CDROM installation disc from VSSP, the FDTI USB drivers and installation instructions are on the
CDROM for each operating system. If you did not receive
a CDROM installation disc from VSSP, then it will be necessary to
download the FTDI USB Drivers and installation procedure from the FTDI web site:
http://www.ftdichip.com/Support/Documents/InstallGuides.htm
If you are not clear on the driver install process, get a member of your IT support team to help.
5.
When the FTDI USB driver has installed, click the 'Find Machine' button on the VSSP Logger Main screen. This will
cause the logger to look for a VSSP machine.
When the machine has been located, the machine details are displayed in the Degausser/Crusher Details box.
NOTE
: The 'DESTROY' button is now enabled.
