Important Note
While a transponder is connected via USB to a PC it is continuously powered by the internal battery. In
order to save battery life, please close the USB connection and remove the transponder from the USB
connection after data transfer.
On account of high operating temperature only use usb cable specified up to +80°C (+176°F).
Recommended cable is Kabeltronic Bestell Nr. 1918010. This cable is specified from -20°C to +80°C. For
that reason USB is not usable at temperatures below -20°C.
6.1
Using the USB Connection
Please see the FDU Software Manual for details.
6.2
Disconnecting the USB Connection
As the transponder is not operating as a USB mass storage device with buffers that must be flushed
before removal, it is quite easy to disconnect it from the USB connection:
•
Stop the service software or cancel the connection to the transponder in the service software.
•
Remove the transponder from the USB connection.
•
Protect the USB connector by safely tightening the protective rubber lid of the transponder.
