NuFlo USB Adapter Installation

The NuFlo™ USB communications port allows a user to configure and download data from a Scanner 2000 or Scanner 2200 to a computer using a standard USB connection. The USB adapter software supplied on the ModWorX Pro installation CD shipped with every Scanner must be installed to support USB communications.

This document guides the user through the installation process (see Part I – Install the Driver, and Part II – Run the “Found New Hardware” Wizard) and explains how to connect to the Scanner using the USB adapter and the ModWorX Pro interface (see Part III – Connect to the Scanner). Part II is required for Windows XP users only.

When the USB adapter is pre-installed at the factory, no additional field wiring is required. However, a USB adapter may be purchased as a kit for installation in a previously acquired Scanner 2000. See the NuFlo™ USB Adapter Kit Installation Guide for instructions on installation and wiring. (A printed installation guide is shipped with all USB adapter kits, and an electronic version of the guide is available on the USB installation CD supplied with the kit.)
