What this chapter contains
This chapter describes the USB connection between the Assistant control panel and
a PC.
USB connection
The two main functions of the USB connection are:
• The control panel acts as an USB adapter, allowing the PC tool to interact with the
drive. See Connecting a PC tool to a drive through the control panel below.
• It is possible to transfer data (for example, screenshots and backups) between the
control panel and the PC. When connected, the control panel appears as an MTP
device on the PC.
