Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a Motorola driver available online. (Several third-party sites may offer one; use them at your own risk.) You can contact Motorola here and ask them if they can send/email you the files.

If you're trying to set this device up on a Windows computer, you can find helpful information about using compatibility mode to get it to work here. If you need a copy of the user manual, you can download that here. You can also find installation and troubleshooting help here.
