2.5 Connecting to the Control Computer
The Bluetooth Explorer 400 Analyzer is controlled over a high-speed USB 2.0 connection by a
PC hosting the Analyzer application, enabling the use of any notebook or desktop computer.
The USB driver must be installed before the analyzer can be used.
Driver installation procedures may vary depending on the user’s Operating System. Therefore,
no specific driver installation procedures are described herein. A given Operating System may
present a series of dialogs to enable the driver installation, and another Operating System may
make this process more automated. If assistance is needed to install the driver, please contact
Ellisys at support@ellisys.com.
Note that the driver is installed with the application software, and is located as described in the
note below.
If the controlling PC does not detect the presence of the rear USB port on the
analyzer
(or if the driver otherwise fails to install), the user can manually install
the USB driver by going
to the operating system’s Device Manager, typically
located in the Windows Control Panel,
selecting the attached Ellisys analyzer,
and manually pointing
via “Update Driver” to the Ellisys “Drivers” folder which
installs with the
Bluetooth Explorer application. This folder is typically located
in
your Program Files folder at [path]
\Ellisys\Ellisys Bluetooth Analyzer\Drivers.
Although the unit can upload or download data on a full speed USB 1.1
connection, Ellisys
strongly recommends that you connect it to a high speed
USB 2.0 port
or a SuperSpeed USB 3.0 port (which will default to USB 2.0 high
speed)
to obtain optimal performance. If you experience connection problems
with the
Bluetooth Explorer 400, please ensure it is connected on a high speed
USB 2.
0 or USB 3.0 host controller before contacting technical support.
