In your Windows Start Menu or Control Panel, search ‘Device Manager’ and click the match suggestion when it appears. It will remain solid green until the NDC-4 begins to receive valid NMEA 0183 data, when it will then begin to flash at the same rate that data is received. The LED next to the white connector where the USB kit lead attaches to the PCB will illuminate red, then amber and then green. USG-2Ī blue LED next to the USB port on the USG-2 will illuminate and remain solid throughout operation.
See this video of the NGW-1 for an example. The two LEDs inside the case will flash quickly and alternately for 2 seconds when powered on. Here’s what to look out for NGW-1-USB & NGT-1-USB If you do not have one of these devices, please skip to ‘Checking Windows Device Manager’ below. Therefore a check of the LEDs will provide a quick indication as to whether the installation has been successful. The NGW-1-USB, NGT-1-USB, USG-2 and NDC-4 (when used with the USB kit lead) all require a successful USB driver installation in order to be powered on. If this process fails, the same driver files are available for download from the Actisense website. This process should happen automatically if you have a working internet connection on the PC being used and if your operating system settings allow it.

If you are trying to use an Actisense USB device and it’s not working, the first thing to check is that the USB drivers have successfully downloaded and installed.
For issues involving connections that use a third party USB to serial converter, please contact the manufacturer of that converter. This article refers to Actisense devices that are manufactured with a USB cable (like the NGW-1-USB or NGT-1-USB) and the USB kit leads available for the NDC-4, NDC-5 and PRO range.
