INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the Gefen USB•100 Series. The USB•100 incorporates
ExtremeUSB™ technology, which allows users the benefi ts of USB technology
extended far beyond the desktop at remote locations. Extending your USB peripherals
up to 330 feet away from the location of your offi ce computer is done easily with the
USB•100.
The USB•100 system consists of two units. The USB•100S Sender resides next to
the host computer, and the USB•100R Receiver is linked to the Sender via Category-5
(CAT-5) cable and resides at the desired location of the USB accessory device away
from the computer.
You can connect additional USB•100 systems to the same computer, allowing you to
connect multiple USB peripherals at remote locations up to 330 feet away from the host
computer.

OPERATIONAL CHECKLIST
1. On the USB•100S Sender unit, check that the power in di ca tor is GREEN.
2. On the USB•100S Sender unit, check that the link indicator is GREEN.
3. On the USB•100R Receiver unit, check that the power in di ca tor is GREEN.
4. Once all LEDs are illuminated as suggested, the USB•100 is ready to accept a USB
peripheral device at the USB port on the USB•100R Receiver unit. Follow the installation
in struc tions as if one were installing the device directly into a com put er's USB port.
5. On the host computer, check that a general purpose USB hub is visible in the Control
Panel. Once con nect ed, a USB peripheral device causes its host computer to automatically
enumerate it. This simply means that the computer must identify the new device, assign
it an ID, and ensure that the required software drivers are available for loading when the
device is to be used.
6. The USB•100 is not an endpoint device. Consequently, it does not have a software
component or driver to be loaded. Some peripheral devices that are to be at tached to the
USB•100 will have a USB Driver diskette or CD-ROM which will need to be inserted after
initial connection to a USB port on the USB•100.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS
Power Indicator is not lit.
-- Make certain the power supply unit is properly con nect ed to the USB•100R unit and to
a proper local power sup ply outlet.
Link Indicators are Green
-- Make certain that the host computer is operating and responding to commands. If required, reset the com put er.
Connection Problem is Not Resolved
-- Disconnect power (DC Adaptor) plug from wall outlet feeding power to the USB•100R unit.
-- Disconnect the USB•100S Sender from the computer.
-- Reconnect power (DC Adaptor) from the USB•100R unit to the wall outlet.
-- Reconnect the USB•100S Sender to the computer.
