Connecting to the USB Port

A mini type- B USB Config port located on the front panel (see

Front Panel Features

on

page 4) is used to connect to a host computer for configuration using SIS commands
with Extron DataViewer, or for updating firmware with the Extron Firmware Loader utility.
DataViewer and Firmware Loader are available at

www.extron.com

. The programs are also

necessary to install the USB driver to the connected computer.
To connect the EDID 101H to a host computer:

NOTE: If an Extron USB device has never been connected to the host computer,

prior to connecting the Config (USB) port for the first time, you must install and
activate the USB driver. The simplest way to do this is to install either Dataviewer
(see

DataViewer

on page 18) or the Firmware Loader utility (see

Updating the

Firmware

on page 19).
