Getting Started

Opening and Closing the X-Cable application

After installation, an icon for the X-Cable application should
appear in the lower right hand corner of the screen
(in the ‘system tray’.) If the X-Cable icon appears in the system tray it means that the program is activated.
If you do not see an icon on the desktop or in the system tray of your PC, go to the Start menu and choose
Programs / X-Cable.

To launch the application simply double click the icon or right click and choose ‘Open Control Panel’ to start
the program.

The X-Cable Icon and the System Tray

Although the X-Cable icon appears in the system tray, it does not mean that a usable connection is in place.
To judge the connection, look at the color of the X-Cable icon. The X-Cable icon in the system tray will look
different depending on what function it is performing.

Red = no connection detected, or no cable attached
Green = connection detected and ready to proceed
Flashing red = indicates a problem with the connection, such as an interruption or a printing error
Flashing yellow = communicating, or currently in the state of transferring data (i.e. printing or downloading)
