2.1 Hook-up diagrams

Please note that only one of the connectors ETHERNET, USB and
DATA can be used at any one time. A connection to the DATA port

disables the ETHERNET and USB connectors. A connection to the
USB port disables the ETHERNET connector.

2.1.1 Single CD24-R8 with USB connection

The USB connector on the CD24-R8 can be connected directly to a
USB port on a PC or laptop.

The PC or laptop will see the CD24-R8 as a serial device on the USB

bus and the operating system will allocate a COM port to it. The
CD24-R8 can then be accessed using Scream (File Setup Com

Ports).

If the PC does not recognise the CD24-R8 as a virtual COM port, you
can download drivers from http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm

2.1.2 Single CD24-R8 with RS232 connection

The DATA connector on the CD24-R8 can be connected directly to a
serial port on a PC or laptop.
