I'm not sure I fully understand you.
What do you mean by "no devide(sic) found"? You mean you could not find USB-8486 or other H1 devices in the network?
You can show me a screenshot of the error message.
You also need to make sure that you have connected the wire to a powerhub correctly.

"when i am using the software to search a device like a DVC6200 from fisher it cant be recognized" - I wonder how you did this exactly.
Your description seems to me that you do not yet know how NI-FBUS works. I recommand that you try to follow the documents which have walk through for setting up a correct connection.
Or, go here for NI-FBUS Hardware and Software User Manual, and here for NI-FBUS Configurator User Manual.

Hi JAUREGUI_HELIO,
From your second photo, I wonder how you connected USB-8486 into the network, since I don't know what it is. You need to connect it into the H1 network through a power hub, rather than right onto certain device.
If what the first photo shows is a power hub, then you should connect it to a free port on that device.

Hi JAUREGUI_HELIO,
How's this issue going? If it still doesn't work, you can provide me with the type of the device in the first photo for me to check. Currently I cannot be sure of its usage.

KLD2-pc-1.1.IEC is indeed a power hub. Have you tried to connect USB-8486 to it?
