3.5 Using the USB Ports
The Universal Serial Bus (USB) ports allow you to connect different desktop peripherals to your computer. By using the USB
ports on your LaCie photon20visionII monitor, you can connect your mouse, keyboard or other USB compliant devices to your
monitor, instead of connecting them to your computer or a hub. The LaCie photon20visionII has an integrated, self-powered
USB hub that allows you to connect up to two other USB devices.
USB Connection
1) Connect one end of a USB
cable to the upstream port of
your display, and the other
end of the USB cable to a
compliant port on your
computer or USB hub.
2) Connect USB compliant
peripheral devices to your
monitor using the monitor’s
downstream ports.
Important Info:
• To activate the USB hub of your LaCie photon20vision, the display must be connected to a USB compliant
computer or hub with a USB cable.
• When connecting the USB cable, ensure that the cable end matches the port that you are attaching it to.
• Even if the display is in power save mode, USB compliant devices will still function when they are connected to
the display.
