C.1. THE PC INTERFACE
The FM-SPY-T is a normal USB 1.1 device. The data transfer rate on the interface of the
FM-SPY-T reaches up at 7Mbps.
The USB cable to use has to feature a rectangular type-A connector on one side and a
quadratic type B connector on the other side. The maximum cable length is specified to:
L
max
= 5.0 meters
Please connect the quadratic type B connector into the USB socket on the rear side of the
FM-SPY-T:
The rectangular type-A USB connector is put into the computers USB 1.1 interface AFTER
THE SOFTWARE INSTALLATION (refer to section C.2. on the next page)
IMPORTANT NOTE
: FIRST install the software
SECOND
make the USB connection
Remark: According to the norms it should be possible to use transfer rates on a USB 1.1
interface of up to 12Mbps maximum theoretical value. Nevertheless some
interfaces (hardware semiconductor chip sets) do not provide this high transfer
rate. There are computers that are not able to handle 7Mbps on the USB 1.1 port
because of hardware limitations. This means that situations can arise in which the
FM-SPY computer program can not run properly because of hardware problems.
In order to verify this try to install the FM-SPY application on an other machine.
