Introduction and System Requirements

Thank you for purchasing the Belkin Components® USB SCSI Adapter. Now, you can easily add up to seven SCSI devices on your Windows® 98 PC or Mac® through a 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 a hub)

•Windows® 98, Windows® 98 SE, or Windows® 2000

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, such as a PowerMac or G3, 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 an optional power supply adapter, available for purchase from Belkin (Part# F5U115xPWR can be used).

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.)
