När du felsöker en USB-akutvagnsadapter finns det några snabba tester som du kan utföra för att utesluta eventuella problem. Du kan testa för att säkerställa att följande komponenter fungerar korrekt och inte orsakar felet:

• Videokablar

• Videokälla

• Datorsystem

• USB-akutvagnsadapter

För att testa komponenterna i din installation, gör på följande sätt:

• Använd videokablarna, videokällan, datorn och USB-akutvagnsadaptern i en annan installation för att se om problemet orsakas av komponenterna eller installationen.

• Använd en annan videokabel, videokälla, dator och USB-akutvagnsadapter i din installation för att se om problemet kvarstår. Det bästa är om du kan testa en komponent som du vet fungerar i en annan installation.

När du testar din kablar, rekommenderar vi att du gör på följande sätt:

• Testa varje kabel separat.

• Använd korta kablar.

När du testar videokablarna, videokällan och USB-akutvagnsadaptern, rekommenderar vi att du gör på följande sätt:

1. Tryck på Windows-tangenten + R, skriv devmgmt.msc och tryck på Enter för att öppna Enhetshanteraren. 

2. Om enheten visas med ett fel, följ instruktionerna på webbplatsen för att installera om drivrutinerna.

För att adaptern ska fungera korrekt måste mjukvaran installeras i ditt operativsystem. Efter att mjukvaran har installerats i ditt operativsystem, kör mjukvaran. Mjukvaran identifierar videokällan automatiskt när den är ansluten till videoporten.

You can use the USB crash cart adapter software to capture video. Videos taken on the attached host computer are saved on the client computer that's running the USB crash cart software.
