Two-Port Hub, File Transfer Port | Hawking Technology H-DS20L

1. Two-Port Hub

Before you connect a USB device to one of the Hub ports, please follow the software installation instructions provided in the subsequent pages of this User’s Manual.

2. PS/2 ports (Keyboard and Mouse port)

If you connect a PS/2 keyboard or mouse to the docking station and you are using a PC, you will not need the software driver. However, if you are using a Mac, you will need to install the software driver on the CD-ROM onto your computer. The software drivers also allow Mac users to access PS/2 ports. To do this, please access the file name “USB_PS2_Converter” which is located on the Mac directory of the CD-ROM.

3. File Transfer Port

You will need a type-A to Type-B USB cable (included in the package) for connecting two PCs, two Macs, or a PC and a Mac. For Windows, please access the root directory of the CD-ROM. For Macs, please access the file name “Installer”. Please refer to the “Operation” section for further instructions/clarifications.

NOTE: At the time of this user’s manual publication, the file transfer port supports the software drivers for Windows 98, 2000, ME, XP and Macs.

4. Serial Port

If you connect a serial port device (e.g., Modem) to the docking station and the docking station is connected to a PC, you will need to reset the upstream port. Because serial ports do not have hot plug and play interfaces, you must reset this function to locate your device on the serial port.

5. Parallel Port

You can attach your computer to most parallel printer devices through this port to get a faster printing result.

6. LAN port (only for Docking Station With LAN)

This port is designed to support 10/100 Mbps Ethernet. It also complies with the IEEE 802.3u, 100BASE-TX, and IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T standards.
