Installing the LecNet2
A Venue receiver can be connected to a computer with
a USB cable or an RS-232 cable. Although the USB
port offers increased speed and convenience over
standard RS-232 links, it does require the installation of
a LecNet2 USB driver.
™
The LecNet2 USB driver is not part of the standard
™
Windows 2000 and XP driver libraries; therefore, con-
®
necting a computer system to the Venue receiver for the
first time differs from subsequent installations. There are
a few differences between installing the LecNet2
drivers on Windows 2000 versus Windows XP systems.
USB Driver Installation (Windows XP) - First Time
