ATTACHING MORE THAN ONE 928 TO THE PC

Once the drivers have been installed for one EASY-NIM module, adding subsequent units is simple.
REMINDER Be sure to run MCB Configuration any time you add new EASY-NIM 928s (or other ORTEC MCBs) to
your system, or when you move an instrument from one USB port to another.

CONNECTING TO AND DISCONNECTING FROM THE PC

The USB connection allows you to connect 928s to and disconnect them from a USB port without shutting down the
computer or USB hub. Note that if MAESTRO is running when you disconnect the 928, you will see a "detector not
responding" message on the status line at the bottom of the MAESTRO window. When you reconnect the 928 to its
USB port — the same port to which it was attached when MCB Configuration was last run — you will have to reselect
it from the Detector droplist on the MAESTRO Toolbar.
