Advantech USB-4750 user manual Hardware Installation, Hardware Uninstallation

2.3 Hardware Installation

Note:	Make sure you have installed the software driver
	before you install the module (please refer to Sec-
	tion 2.2 Driver Installation)

After the DLL driver installation is completed, you can now go on to install the USB-4750 module in any USB port that supports the

USB 1.1/2.0 standard, on your computer. It is suggested that you refer to the computer’s user manual if you have any doubts. Please follow the steps below to install the module on your system.

Step 1: Touch the metal part on the surface of your computer to neutral- ize the static electricity that might be in your body.

Step 2: Plug your USB module into the selected USB port. Use of exces- sive force must be avoided; otherwise the module might get damaged.

Note:	In case you installed the module without installing the
	DLL driver first, Windows 2000/XP will recognize your
	module as an “unknown device” after reboot, and will
	prompt you to provide necessary driver. You should
	ignore the prompting messages (just click the Cancel
	button) and set up the driver according to the steps
	described in Section 2.2 Driver Installation.

After your module is installed, you can configure it using the Advantech Device Manager. The Device Driver's Manual can be found at:

Start\Programs\Advantech Automation\Advantech Device Man- ager\Device Driver’s Manual

2.4 Hardware Uninstallation

Though the Advantech USB modules are hot swappable, we still recom- mend you to follow the hardware un-installation procedure to avoid any unpredictable damages to your device or your system.

Step1: Close the applications of the USB module.
