4. Installation
4.1 Attaching USB Equipment
NOTES
For more information about the USB X-Tender’s data
connectors, see
Appendix A
.
Before you attach any USB peripheral device to the
USB X-Tender’s Device-Interface Module, we
strongly
recommend
that you plug it directly into the computer that
will be attached to the X-Tender’s Host-Interface Module
and make sure that the device works properly.
The USB X-Tender has two independent USB channels.
You can attach USB equipment to these channels in any
of three ways:
• Connect a single USB device to a single USB-host
port through X-Tender channel 1 (see
Section 4.1.1
).
• Connect a pair of USB devices to a pair of USB-
host ports through X-Tender channels 1 and 2
(see
Section 4.1.2
).
• Connect multiple USB devices to a USB hub,
which is in turn connected to a single USB-host
port through X-Tender channel 1 (see
Section 4.1.3
).
