If the problem persists, your application may be USB 2.0 bus limited. Since the host computer
controls the USB 2.0 bus, there may be situations where the host computer interrupts the USB
2.0 port. In most cases, the interrupt will go unnoticed by the user. However, there are some
instances when the data overrun cannot be overcome because USB 2.0 bus limitations
combined with long data acquisition times and/or large data sets increase the possibility of an
interrupt while data is being acquired. If your experiment requirements include long data
acquisition times and/or large data sets, your application may not be suitable for the USB 2.0
interface. Therefore, we recommend replacement of the USB 2.0 interface module with our
TAXI interface module and Princeton Instruments (RSPI) PCI card. If this is not the case and
data overruns continue to occur, contact Technical Support (see page 162 for contact
information).

Demo is only Choice on Hardware Wizard:Interface dialog

If RSConfig.exe has not been run and there is not an installed Princeton Instruments (RSPI)
high speed PCI card, the Hardware Wizard will only present the choice "Demo" in the
Interface dialog box (Figure 51). Clicking on Next presents an "Error Creating Controller.
Error=129." message, clicking on OK presents "The Wizard Can Not Continue Without a
Valid Selection!" message, clicking on OK presents the Interface dialog box again.
At this point, you will need to exit WinView and run the RSConfig.exe program, which
creates a file called PVCAM.INI. This file contains information required to identify the
interface/camera and is referenced by the Hardware Wizard when you are setting up
WinView/32 with USB for the first time:
1. If you have not already done so, close WinView/32.
2. Make sure the ST-133 is connected to the host computer and that it is turned on.
3. Run RSConfig from the Windows|Start|Programs|Roper Scientific menu or
