Windows® will detect "Serial on USB Port", and will automatically install the proper drivers. Driver Installation is now complete. 8 Software Installation (continued) To verify that the drivers are loaded, right-click on "My Computer" and select properties. Click on the "Device Manager" tab and you will see the device list as shown below. The encircled devices are parts of the ExpressBusTM Plus. 9 Features and Usage Built-in 3-Port Hub The built-in 3-Port hub of the ExpressBusTM Plus functions as any other USB Hub. Simply plug in any USB device and Windows® will automatically recognize the device and configure the drivers. Each downstream port supports both full-speed and low-speed devices. Each port can provide a maximum of 500mA of current as long as the power adapter is connected to the ExpressBusTM Plus. The ExpressBusTM Plus also features Overcurrent Protection and Auto Recovery. If a USB device plugged into the ExpressBusTM Plus draws more than 500mA of current, Overcurrent Protection shuts off all power to the faulty downstream port and changes the appropriate LED color to red. When the faulty device is unplugged from the ExpressBusTM Plus, the Auto Recovery feature automatically resets the Overcurrent Protection and in approximately 5 seconds, the LED is green again and the port is free to be used. Parallel Printer Port The Parallel Printer Port of the ExpressBusTM Plus allows you to connect any parallel printer to your computer, without using up the current parallel port. All you need is a standard printer cable. If you are connecting a new printer to the ExpressBusTM Plus AFTER the ExpressBusTM Plus drivers have been installed, be sure to select the correct port. "PB1284-1" is the Parallel Printer Port of the ExpressBusTM Plus: 10 Features and Usage (continued) If your printer has been installed previously on the local parallel port of your computer (LPT1 ­ the one on the back of your machine), you can now free up that parallel port and connect your printer to the ExpressBusTM Plus. To do that, you must tell Windows® that the printer is attached to a new port. Click on "Start", select "Settings" and right-click on your printer. Choose "Properties" and click on the "Details" tab: In the "Print to the following port:" box, make sure you select "PB1284-1". 11 Features and Usage (continued) Some printers may not function correctly because their drivers are expecting a true LPT port for communication. If you encounter problems with bi-directional communication, check to see if your printer driver allows you to DISABLE bi-directional communication. [. . . ] Adding serial ports is as easy as plugging in a cable! 16 Information FCC Statement DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY WITH FCC RULES FOR ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY We, Belkin Components, of 501 West Walnut Street, Compton CA 90220, declare under our sole responsibility that the product: F5U012 to which this declaration relates: Complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
