Agilent E6474A User’s Guide 33
• Your Dual Serial Port PCMCIA card may only be compatible
with certain versions of Windows. For example, if your
computer is running Windows 2000, the dual serial port
PCMCIA card(s) must be revision C or higher.
• Check the card manufacturer’s specifications to ensure
compatibility.
• Windows 2000 requires that anyone installing hardware
drivers must have System Administrator rights. If you do not
currently have System Administrator rights for the computer
on which the E6473B drivers need to be installed, you must
contact your site’s IT Support for assistance. They can either
grant you the rights you need to install the drivers, or they
can log onto your computer and perform the installation for
you.
Phone Connections
1 Connect the phones to their respective interface cables.
2 If necessary, connect the phone interface cable to the 9-to-26
pin adapter. (Non-TDMA phones can be directly connected to
the serial port without an adapter when an OEM cable is
used.)
3 Connect the dual serial port PCMCIA data cables to the dual
serial port PCMCIA card.
4 Connect the adapter of one phone interface cable to the data
cable from the dual serial port PCMCIA card.
5 Connect the adapter of the second phone interface cable to
the data cable from the dual serial port PCMCIA card.
Devices Connected Through an E6473B High Speed Direct Connect Hub
The E6473B High Speed Direct Connect Hub expands the serial
communication capabilities of the computer. The computer and
hub communicate via the Universal Serial Bus (USB). The Hub
converts the USB to six serial (COM) ports, which are in turn
connected to the devices. To the E6474A data collection
software, the devices appear to be directly connected to six
serial (COM) ports of the computer.
