IV Connecting and Installing the Equipment

3Connection Methods

(3)Connecting USB Peripheral Equipment

Be sure to turn off the power for the DS-L1 before making any connections.

When using a USB mouse, USB keyboard, USB printer (Mitsubishi CP900D), or Nikon 80i/90i microscope independently, connect the device directly to the USB-H connector on the DS-L1. When using USB devices simultaneously, connect them to a USB hub.

Only one USB hub can be connected to the DS-L1.

If your keyboard is equipped with a USB hub, use the hub built into your keyboard.

(4) Connecting to a PC or a PictBridge-Supporting Printer with USB Cable

When connecting to a PC, connect one end of the USB 2.0 cable (AB type) to the USB connector on the PC and the other end to the USB-D connector on the DS-L1.

When connecting to a PictBridge-supporting printer, connect the PictBridge-supporting printer and the USB-D connector on DS-L1 with a USB cable (AB type).

(5) Connecting the DS Remote Controller DS-RC

Be sure to turn off the power for the DS-L1 before making any connections.

Connect one end of the remote cable supplied with the unit to the EXTERNAL IN connector on the DS-L1 and the other end to the TO EXT.IN connector on the remote controller.

(6) Connecting to a Network

Be sure to turn off power for the DS-L1 and the equipment to be connected before making any connections. In addition, be sure to consult your network administrator.

Make the connections as shown below. We recommend using cables and hubs designed for 100BASE-TX use.
