CONFIGURATION KIT 1

1.6 Description of USB interface

The USB interface is powered from the PC´s USB port. There are three LED indicators on the

USB interface: "USB", "PC" and "DEV". They are indicators to make the understanding of the
communication between PC and transmitter easier. Their functions are described below:

• "USB" LED indicates data transfer. It lights during data transfer, otherwise it is off.

• "PC" LED indicates connection between configuration program and PC. It is green only during

reading or writing to transmitter.

• "DEV" LED indicates the transmitter connection status. If it’s green, the connected

transmitter is detected by the USB interface. Flashing green indicates that the USB interface
is waiting for a new transmitter from the same product family, e.g. changing to a new device.

When it´s red no transmitter is detected by the USB interface and any sort of transmitter can

be connected to the USB interface.
