Connecting the cutter to a computer
The S CLASS 2 cutters support bi-directional USB and Ethernet connectivity. When both ports
are connected at the same time, the port that receives the data first will remain active and the
other port will be deactivated.
1.5.1 USB connection
The USB cable should be 5 meters (16 feet) or less in length. The connector on the cutter side
of the cable should be USB series B 4-pin. The connector on the computer side of the cable
should be USB A 4-pin.
1.5.1.1 Connecting the S CLASS 2 cutter to a PC, using a USB cable
NOTE: When installing a cutter, make sure the user has administrative rights and
UAC is deactivated or set it to its lowest level.
1. Install the USB driver (downloaded from the internet).
2. Connect one end of the USB cable to a USB port on the computer.
3. Connect the other end of the USB cable to the USB port at the back of the cutter.
4. Power on the cutter and return to the computer.
5. Click “OK” and follow the instructions, provided by the Wizard on the computer. Windows
will find and install the driver.
6. Restart the computer.
NOTE: When connecting a cutter to a computer for the first time, using the USB
cable, the computer will detect the cutter and install the USB driver if the setup
program was run. If the setup program was not run prior to connection, then
install the program while the cutter is connected and switched on. After the
program is run, the computer will detect a new device and install the correct driver
