• If the Device Manager lists Echelon USB Network Interface under

the Universal Serial Bus controllers heading, open the USB Network

Interface item. If the status indicates that the driver is not working

properly, first try repairing the OpenLDV software. If that doesn’t work,
download the latest version of the OpenLDV Installer from Echelon’s web

site. Both of these options are described above.

• Unplug and re-insert the USB interface.
• If the Device Manager does not list Echelon USB Network Interface

under the Universal Serial Bus Controllers item, check the support
area on Echelon’s web site for an updated version of the OpenLDV

Installer. The latest version of the OpenLDV Installer is available from

http://www.echelon.com/downloads

.

Network Interface. This opens the Properties dialog. Re-check the
L

4. The USB interface was plugged into the PC before the OpenLDV

software was installed. What do I do?

• Echelon recommends installing the OpenLDV software before connecting

the USB interface to your PC. But if you have not previously installed

the software, a dialog will open requesting that you insert the USB
Network Interface Drivers CD into your CD-ROM drive when you plug in

the USB interface. Insert the CD into the CD-ROM drive and click OK.

If you are connected to the Internet, you could also specify to check
Windows Update for the drivers. Following this, you must install the

OpenLDV software, as described in Chapter 1 of this document.

• If the USB interface does not function properly after performing the

action described above, perform the suggested steps in the other items in
