Connecting option

USB devices

Universal Serial Bus (USB) is a new serial bus design that is capable of
cascading low-/medium-speed peripherals (less than 12 Mbps) such as a
keyboard, mouse, joystick, scanner, printer and modem. With USB,
complex cable connections can be eliminated.

Your system comes with two USB ports located on the front panel.
These ports allow you to connect additional serial devices to your
system without using up its system resources.

To connect a USB device, simply plug the device cable into either USB

ports

(black port) located on the front panel of your system.

Note:

Most USB devices have a built-in USB port which allows

you to daisy-chain other devices.
