Connecting the USB Cable
To connect the SECM to your computer, use the 2-meter USB cable provided in the package, following these steps:
1. Plug the USB cable “B” connector end (square) into the connector on the back of the GFSECM enclosure.
2. Plug the USB cable “A” connector end (rectangular) to a USB port on your computer or hub.
The first time the SECM is connected to the USB port on a computer running Microsoft Windows, a message “New Hardware Found” or “Your New Device is Now Ready” should appear briefly on your screen. This indicates that Windows has detected the SECM, and has loaded all required drivers. From this point on, if you disconnect the SECM and then re-connect it, the drivers will automatically load and no message will appear on the screen. This also occurs each time you re-start your computer while the SECM is connected. The automatic loading of drivers, with no notification message, is a normal operating feature of the Windows Plug and Play system.
