Yes you need both cables connected to the camera.

I sometimes use it without the USB and just adjust the ISO etc manually.
Just connect the serial cable to a com port.

Go to:

Camera Control | Bulb Exposure Setup | Port setup

In the serial setup select your com port, set it to RTS and press Test Port.
The LED should blink and the shutter should activate (camera in Bulb mode)

Now you're ready to use it manually.
Go to:

Image Capture | Long exposure TAB | then setup your times or do a manual press and release sequence.

Just ignore the "no camera connected" warning.

But to fully utilize the features connect the USB too.
