Front Panel Configuration Port
The mini type B USB port is located on the front panel (see figure 12 on page 12). It is used
to connect to a host computer for configuration using SIScommands with DataViewer or for
updating firmware with the Firmware Loader utility. Both are available at www.extron.com.
The programs are also necessary to install the USB driver to the connected computer.
To connect the MPS602 to a host computer:
NOTE: If an Extron USB device has never been connected to the host computer, prior
to connecting the MPS602 Config (USB) port for the first time, you must install and
activate the USB driver. The simplest way to do this is to install either Dataviewer
(see DataViewer on page35) or the Firmware Loader utility (see Updating
Firmware on page36).
1. After the USB driver is loaded, connect a USB A to mini B cable between the Config
port on the MPS602 front panel and a USB port of the PC.

Hardware Wizard dialog opens. The first screen offers to connect to Windows Update
to search the Web for the appropriate driver. This is not necessary if the USB driver is
already on your PC (see the Note above).
