Introduction and System Requirements

1

Thank you for purchasing the Belkin Components

®

USB-SCSI

Adapter. Now, you can easily add up to 7 SCSI devices on
your Windows

®

98 PC, or Mac

through USB port! No more

opening your computer case, no more IRQ conflicts or driver
problems! Simply plug it in!

Your PC must have:

• 486 processor or faster
• 16MB memory or more
• A free USB port (on the computer

or at a hub)

• Windows

®

98 or Windows

®

98 SE

Your Macintosh

®

must have:

• OS 8.6 or higher
• A free USB port (on the computer or at a hub)

Notes:

1.

It is NOT recommended that you plug in the
USB-SCSI adapter to the USB ports on the
iMac

keyboard. The keyboard does not supply

enough power, and is a low-speed device.

2.

If you own a non-iMac

machine and wish to add

USB ports, please obtain a Belkin USB BusPort

for Mac

®

(model # F5U005-Mac

®

)

Your SCSI device must be able to supply termination power
to the USB SCSI Adapter. Some devices such as Iomega
Zip

®

Drives and some brands of scanners will not be able to

provide the required +5V termination power. In such an
event, a SCSI device that can provide termination power
must be connected to the device chain or you can use the
power supply adapter supplied with the package.
If you are going to plug the USB-SCSI Adapter into a USB

Hub, make sure that it is a self-powered hub.

(A self-powered hub has its own power supply.)
