①
USB Port: These ports are the converter's USB Hub that allows you
to connect a USB Hard Drive, USB web camera, Keyboard or Mouse.
Note:
•
These two USB ports cannot be connected to a USB Hub.
Doing so will trigger the system to detect the external USB Hub and
thereby cause a system failure.
•
Before removing a USB device, you must follow the USB device's
hardware removal procedure when removing the device. Failure to
do so will cause the system to crash.
②
Mini USB IN: This port supports extension or mirror of video (via USB cable)
to your HDMI display, including both video and audio output signals.
③
Ethernet IN: This slot lets you connect a RJ-45 CAT5 cable to home IP
router or PC Ethernet port.
•
When connected to a PC Ethernet port, the user needs to
manually set the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) to “169.254.10.1”.
•
If connected to an IP router, the system will automatically be
connected without the user setting up its Internet Protocol.
④
Input connection switch: This switch allows you to select the PC source
either via Mini USB port or through Ethernet port.
⑤
Reset IP: This button is only pressed to reset the Ethernet IP address when
the system's IP address is incorrect.
