Connect a USB Cable
The USB driver was copied to your PC during BESTCOMSPlus
®
installation and is installed automatically
after powering the DECS-250. USB driver installation progress is shown in the Windows Taskbar area.
Windows will notify you when installation is complete.
In some instances, the Found New Hardware Wizard will prompt you for the
USB driver. If this happens, direct the wizard to the following folder:
C:\Program Files\Basler Electric\USB Device Drivers\
If the USB driver does not install properly, refer to the Maintenance chapter for a troubleshooting
procedure.
Connect a USB cable between the PC and your DECS-250. Apply operating power (per style chart in the
Introduction chapter) to the DECS-250 at rear terminals A, B, and C. Wait until the boot sequence is
complete.
