2.3.7 Connecting the USB port (rear side)
In order to remotely control the device via this port, connect the device with a PC using the included USB cable
and switch the device on.
2.3.7.1 Driver installation (Windows)
On the initial connection with a PC the operating system will identify the device as new hardware and will try to
install a driver. The required driver is for a Communications Device Class (CDC) device and is usually integrated in
current operating systems such as Windows 7 or 10. But it is strongly recommended to use and install the included
driver installer (on USB stick) to gain maximum compatibility of the device to our softwares.
In case the USB stick is not available, the driver can also be obtained from our website (Service -> Downloads).
2.3.7.2 Driver installation (Linux, MacOS)
We cannot provide drivers or installation instructions for these operating systems. Whether a suitable driver is
available is best carried out by searching the Internet.
2.3.7.3 Alternative drivers
In case the CDC drivers described above are not available on your system, or for some reason do not function
correctly, commercial suppliers can help. Search the Internet for suppliers using the keywords “cdc driver windows“
or “cdc driver linux“ or “cdc driver macos“.
