Installation fails.

ª

Installation completes, but the

computer does not recognize the

unit.

If some trouble is causing installation to fail,
or installation completes but the computer
does not recognize the unit, check the
following.
1) USB indicator lit

Is the USB indicator on the front panel

of the unit lit? If the USB indicator is not

lit, confirm that the USB cable is properly

connected.

NOTE

Always use the included USB cable.
2) Change the USB port

Since the unit might not function

properly with some USB ports, try

connecting to a different built-in USB

port on the computer, and reinstall the

driver (when using Windows).

NOTE

Try again after disconnecting other USB

devices. (Keyboards and mice can be left
connected.)
Do not use a USB hub. Always connect the

unit directly to a built-in USB port on the
computer.

3) Stop other software running in the

background
Since antivirus software and other

software that runs in the background

can interfere with installation, stop other

software before beginning installation.
See “3 – Installation” on page 10 of this

manual for how to install and uninstall

the driver.
