In the following the commissioning via USB is described.
5.2.7.1
Adapting the USB interface
Procedure
Proceed as follows to set the USB interface:
1. Switch on the converter power supply and connect the converter to the PC via USB.
2. The USB drivers are installed if you are connecting the converter and PC together for the
first time. Windows 7 automatically installs the drivers without you having to take any
action. For older Windows versions, acknowledge the corresponding screen forms with
OK.
3. Start the STARTER commissioning software.
4. If you are using STARTER for the first time, you must check the USB interface setting. To
do this, click in STARTER on
("Accessible nodes").
If the interface is appropriately set, then the "Accessible nodes" screen form lists the
converters, which are connected via the USB interface. In this case, go to Point 7.
If incorrectly set, then the "No additional nodes found" message is displayed.
