Panel Indicators and Connectors

The rear panel Chassis Ground banana jack is intended for one use only. When the Interface 5000 is used with
cells isolated from earth ground, connecting the chassis ground to earth ground may lower the noise measured
in the system. Note that the chassis of the Interface 5000 is connected to floating ground. Safety information
concerning this is in Chapter 1

.
A banana plug is the only way you can connect to the Chassis Ground jack. Use a wire to connect the banana
plug to earth ground.
A black banana-plug-to-banana-plug lead is provided with your Interface 5000. You may find it useful when
making this earth-ground connection.
USB Port
The USB port on the rear panel of the Interface 5000 is a Type B connector as defined in Revision 1.1 and 2.0
of the USB Specification. Use a standard, shielded, Type A/B cable to connect this port to a comp
uter’s USB
port or a USB hub (preferably an externally powered hub). The two ends of a Type A/B cable are different. The
more-rectangular end plugs into the computer and the more-square end plugs into the Interface 5000.
A suitable USB cable was included with your Interface 5000. If this cable is lost, you can replace it with a cable
from your local computer retailer.
The Interface 5000 is a High Speed USB 2.0 peripheral, capable of data-transfer at 480 Mbits/second. If it is
plugged into a computer port incapable of High Speed operation it will downgrade to USB 1.1 full-speed
operation (12 Mbits/second), causing slower data-transfer. The Interface 5000 USB port is compatible with
Revision 1.1 and 2.0 of the USB specification. It supports the Windows Plug-n-Play mechanism, including
dynamic connect/reconnect.
The front panel USB LED should be green whenever a valid computer to Interface 5000 connection is made
and both the computer and Interface 5000 are fully powered.
