Extron electronic SMD 101 manual Front Panel Configuration Port, Found New Hardware Wizard

Front Panel Configuration Port

The mini type B USB port is located on the front panel (see Front Panel Features on page 8). It connects to a host computer for configuration using SIS commands with DataViewer.

To connect the SMD 101 to a host computer:

NOTE: If an Extron USB device has never been connected to the host computer, prior to connecting the SMD 101 config (USB) port for the first time, you must install and activate the USB driver. The simplest way to do this is to install DataViewer (see DataViewer on page 93) or obtain the driver from the SMD 101 product page at www.extron.com.

1.After the USB driver is loaded, connect a USB A to mini B cable between the Config port on the SMD 101 front panel and a USB port of the PC.

2.If this is the first time an Extron product is connected to the PC, the Found New Hardware Wizard dialog opens. The first screen offers to connect to Windows Update to search the internet for the appropriate driver. This is not necessary if the USB driver is already on your PC (see the Note above).
