1The Reader features a built-in Hi-Speed USB 2.0 3-Port Hub. It enables

you to connect USB devices with a critical advantage over traditional USB

2.0 hubs. That is its implementation of the new “Quad TT” architecture,

which enables each of the Hub’s three downstream ports to deliver a full

12Mbps of USB bandwidth for low- and full-speed devices, while providing

total support for Hi-Speed USB 2.0 devices. This is especially important

when connecting multiple, bandwidth-intensive, full-speed devices such as

USB webcams, speakers, scanners, and external storage devices.

In addition to Readers, Belkin manufactures an entire line of USB and PC

accessories. Please visit belkin.com for details.

1Media Insertion

To prevent damage to your Reader and/or media card, be sure to insert

the media card correctly into the Reader. See the drawings below that

IMPORTANT NOTE: DO NOT PLUG READER INTO COMPUTER

UNTIL INSTRUCTED TO DO SO

Windows 98 SE, Me, 2000, XP, Vista

Driver Installation

1. Insert the Belkin Driver Installation CD.

a) After a few moments, the setup application will appear on

your computer screen.

b) If the setup application does not appear, double-click “My

Computer”, and then click on your CD-ROM drive icon. This

will load the setup application’s main page.

2. Click the “Install Driver” button.

3. The “InstallShield Wizard” will now start. Click “Next” on each of the

screens that are displayed, and then click “Finish”. Now, restart your

computer to complete the driver installation process.

Important Operating System Notes:

a) Windows Me, XP and Vista offer native support for mass-storage

devices. It is not necessary to install the Belkin driver in order

to use the Reader. However, if you wish to take advantage of the

custom drive icons, the driver must be installed. Note: Custom Icon

support is currently unavailable for Vista.

b) Windows 2000 also offers native support for mass-storage devices,

but in versions prior to Service Pack 3, does not support “multi-

LUN” devices. If the Belkin driver is not installed in Windows 2000

versions prior to Service Pack 3, only the CompactFlash slot will be

available. Furthermore, if you wish to take advantage of the custom

drive icons, the driver must be installed.

Installation Procedure for Windows

___

c) Windows 98 SE does not support mass-storage devices; therefore,

the Belkin driver must always be installed.

Hardware Installation

Important Note: Please do not connect any USB devices to the Hub’s

ports until the installation process has been completed.

1. Plug the AC adapter into a wall outlet or surge suppressor. Plug

the DC connector into the DC power jack found on the rear of the

Reader.

Note: The hub may be used without the power supply with

most USB devices.

2. Plug the flat end (USB-A connector) of the provided USB device

cable into the downstream port of your computer, or downstream

port of another hub. Plug the small end (USB-B mini-B connector)

into the USB-B mini-B connector on the back of the Reader.

Important Note: The Reader must be connected to a USB 2.0-compliant

host in order to function in Hi-Speed mode (480Mbps data rate). If the Hub

is connected to a USB 1.1-compliant host, it will operate only in low-speed

or full-speed mode (1.5Mbps/12Mbps).
