Work with USB Devices
This topic discusses how USB devices function when they are connected to a computer in your
MultiPoint Server system or to a MultiPoint Server station. In addition, this topic contains sections about
connecting a USB hub or multifunction hub to create a MultiPoint Server station or to provide additional
USB ports for devices.
You can connect devices to either the computer in your MultiPoint Server system or to a MultiPoint
Server station hub. The location where a device is connected, and the type of device, affects whether a
device is accessible to all users on the system, or only to individual users. The following are examples
of the different connection types:
●
If you connect a device directly to the computer, such as a printer or USB mass storage device, the
device can be accessed by all users on the system.
●
If a keyboard, mouse, or audio device is connected to a station hub, the device is accessible only
to the user logged on to that MultiPoint Server station.
●
If you connect other devices besides a keyboard, mouse, or audio device to a station hub, such as
USB mass storage devices or USB printers, those devices are accessible to all users on the system.
If you add or remove a keyboard, mouse, or audio device while the system is running, the device
addition or removal affects only the session to which the device is associated. For example, if you
connect a mouse to a station hub, the mouse is automatically added to that station.
The table below shows a list of devices and how they behave, depending on where they are connected
to the system. Information about connecting station hubs is described in the Working with station hubs
section below.

Notes
Keyboard
We do not recommend
connecting a keyboard
directly to the computer.
Accessible only to the station
user.
If the keyboard contains a
USB port, any keyboard,
mouse, or audio device
attached to that port is
accessible only to the user
who is using that keyboard. If
you connect a USB storage
device, it is visible to all users
on the system.
Mouse
We do not recommend
connecting a mouse directly
to the computer.
Accessible only to the station
user.
If the mouse contains built-in
memory, the memory storage
is accessible to all users on
the system.
USB hub
