Hardware Overview
You can connect your ZiO HS Reader/Writer to computers with USB 1.1 por ts or USB 2.0
ports. Computers with USB 2.0 por ts will utilize the ZiO HS Reader/Writer’s Hi-Speed
transfer capability, moving data at a much faster rate than computers with USB 1.1 ports.
The ZiO HS Reader/Writer is available in four different models: SmartMedia/xD, Compact-
Flash (Type I & II, including IBM Microdrive), MultiMediaCard/Secure Digital, and
Memor yStick (including MagicGate).
The ZiO HS Reader/Writer is shipped in the closed position with its protective ring covering
the card slot and the USB connector. To prepare your ZiO HS Reader/Writer for use, begin
by positioning the unit with the Access Indicator on top, as shown below. Then simply flip
the protective ring to the open position to uncover the USB connector and the card slot
and conver t the ring to a stand. Later, when you’re done using your ZiO HS Reader/Writer,
you can cover the USB connector and the card slot (with or without a card inserted) by flip-
ping the protective ring back to the closed position. This turns your ZiO HS Reader/Writer
into a por table digital media carr ying case.
