To install the GPIB-USB-A, connect the USB connector from the GPIB-USB-A to an available USB

port on your computer. The GPIB-USB-A connects directly to most GPIB devices without requiring

a GPIB cable. If your computer is already running, Windows automatically detects the GPIB

hardware. Otherwise, start your computer and Windows will detect the GPIB hardware.
