Introduction and System Requirements

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.)
