Installing the USB Drivers

Before using EasyLogger the USB drivers need to be installed. This is done by plugging the instrument into a spare USB port on the PC. The instrument should be plugged into a USB hub port of your PC or alternatively, a self-powered USB hub (one that has it's own power supply).

If this is the first time that the instrument has been plugged in, Windows will request the USB drivers for your product and will display a Found New Hardware Wizard dialog box. The example below is for Windows 2000 but the procedure is very similar for other Windows versions.


Connect the instrument to a spare USB port on the PC or self-powered hub. The following screen will appear to begin guiding you through the driver installation.

   


Click "Next" to proceed with the installation. The following screen will appear:

   


Select the option box for "Search for a suitable driver for my device (recommended)" and click "Next".

   


Check the box for "CD-ROM drives" and un-check all others.

NOTE: If the CD is not available and the EasyLogger software has already been installed, then check the "Specify a location" box and use the Browse button to select the "drivers" sub-directory of the EasyLogger Program Files directory instead.

Keep Clicking on "Next" until the installation is finished as per the screen below.

   


Click "Finish" to complete the installation of the first device.

If using Windows 2000, the second device will be installed automatically. For other versions of Windows, the above process may need to be repeated to complete the instrument installation.
