USB Devices
You must be an Administrator to install NI software and devices on your
computer. Complete these steps to install an NI device for USB:
1. Make power connections.
• If you are using the BP-1 battery pack, install it as described in your
BP-1 installation guide.
• Some NI devices for USB require external power. If your device has
an external power supply, verify that the voltage on the external
power supply, if any, matches the voltage in your area (for example,
120 or 230 VAC) and the voltage required by your device.
2. Connect the power supply or power cord to an electrical outlet and your
device.
3. Connect the cable from the computer USB port or from any other hub to
any available USB port on the device.
