remove the USB cable. PC operation may stop.
· While the driver software program is being installed.
· While the OS is being activated or terminated.
· During the course of being suspended or resumed.
· While data is being transferred between the Sound Repeater and the PC.
Because PC operations could also freeze, avoid performing the following:
· Frequent ON and OFF power switching
· Frequent USB cable insertion and detachment
