1.9.1 Connecting the USB Cable
The control unit and the personal computer (PC) are connected via the USB.
The control unit is a high-powered device that operates by receiving power (5 V, 300
mA) from the USB. Connect the control unit directly to the USB port on the PC
(recommended) or through a self-powered USB hub to the PC. You cannot use a
bus-powered USB hub.
• Do not insert or remove the USB connector while the system is in opera-
tion. In addition, securely connect the USB connector, so it does not acci-
dentally come loose.
• It is recommended that the control unit be connected directly to the USB terminal
on your PC as shown in Fig. 1-14.
If you are connecting the control unit to a hub, do not connect devices that trans-
mit large amounts of data such as a printer or a camera.
