Using the USB interface
Description
You may use the USB port of your Personal
computer for communication through the USB
interface. Microsoft Windows 98SE, 2000, XP to
Windows 8* may be used.
To use the USB interface, it is necessary to install
the device driver.
This driver may fail to work properly if the host
PC is in the suspend mode or sleep mode. The
driver may not run at its full performance if the
screen saver or another application is running.
NOTE
USB hubs are easily affected by external noise,
which may cause errors. When using USB hubs try
to self-powered hubs so that the connection is not
affected by noise.
