2.3 Hardware Installation
After the DLL driver installation is completed, you can now go on to
install the USB-4751/4751L module in any USB port that supports the
USB 1.1/2.0 standard, on your computer. 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.

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.
Step2: Right click the “Unplug or Eject Hardware” icon on your task bar.
Note: Make sure you have installed the software driver
before you install the module (please refer to
Section 2.2 Driver Installation)
Note: In case you installed the module without installing
the DLL driver, Win2000/XP will recognize your
module as an “unknown device”. After reboot,it will
prompt you to provide necessary driver. You should
ignore the prompting messages and set up the
driver according to the steps described in Sec.2.2.
