Connecting to the computer

<Mac OS 9

Operation>

Connect the MAUSB-100’s connector to the USB port on your computer. (You can plug in the USB connector
while the computer is in use.)

Notes

● Make sure the connector is fully inserted.

● When inserting the connector, make sure it is oriented correctly (refer to the pictures below). Inserting the

connector incorrectly may damage the connector and/or the computer’s USB port.

● Make sure there is adequate space around the computer to connect the MAUSB-100 to the computer

properly.

● If there is not enough space for the MAUSB-100 around the computer to allow a direct connection, use the

provided USB extension cable. Connecting the MAUSB-100 to the computer incorrectly may result in
damage to the connector and/or the computer's USB port.

● Do not apply force to the computer's USB port or the MAUSB-100 when removing/inserting a card from/into

the MAUSB-100 if it is directly connected to the computer's USB port.

When the card is recognized correctly

When the card is inserted correctly and the
MAUSB-100 is recognized on your computer, the
green status lamp lights and the icon at right
appears.

● The title of the card varies depending on the card

inserted.

In the example, the MAUSB-100 is
connected to the USB port of an iMac
computer. The MAUSB-100 is
connected to USB port 1 and the
keyboard is connected to USB port 2.

Status lamps

Green status lamp lights : When the MAUSB-100 is connected to the computer and is ready to use.

The status lamps may look in orange as both the green and red status lamps light together.

Do not release the hold switch, remove the card or disconnect the MAUSB-100 from the computer while the red
status lamp is lit. Doing so may destroy the data stored on the card.

The green and red status lamps blink slowly if the card is not recognized correctly. When this happens, follow the
instructions in “4 Removing a card” (

p. 33) to remove the card from the MAUSB-100, then wipe the contact

area with a dry cloth, and insert the card again. If the problem persists, the card may be damaged.
