Installation

Connect the USB Ports

1. Connect up to seven USB peripherals to the USB 3.0 Hub Ports, located on the USB Hub.
2. Use the included USB 3.0 A – B Cable, to connect a USB port, located on the Host Computer to the USB 3.0 Host Port, located on the USB Hub.
   • The Computer will automatically detect the device and install the required drivers for the USB Hub.

Power the Hub with an External Power Supply

The USB hub can operate with bus power alone, or with an external 7~48V DC Power Source connected via the 2-Wire Termal Block. However, it is recommended that a DC Power Source be connected to ensure sufficient power is delivered to each USB 3.0 Port.

Configure the USB Hub to Accept an External Power Source

USB Bus Power must be disabled before the USB Hub can accept an external power source. This is accomplished by adjusting a jumper, located on one of the USB Hub’s PCBs. Follow the below steps to disassemble the USB Hub and configure the jumper:

1. Using a Phillips-head screwdriver. Remove the four screws, located on the top and bottom sides of the USB Hub (above each of the mounting brackets), and the two screws located on the side of the USB Hub (six screws in total).
   

2. Carefully remove the top metal panel from the USB Hub, and remove the four screws, located on the upper PCB, using a Philipshead screwdriver.
   

3. Carefully lift the upper PCB away from the bottom of the USB Hub, reveiling the lower PCB. The USB BUS PWR pin culster is located on the upper-right side of the lower PCB.
   

4. Remove the Jumper that’s placed on the ENA pins, and place the jumper on the DIS pins.
   

5. Reinstall the upper PCB by carefully re-aligning the pins of the upper PCB with their corresponding sockets on the lower PCB and gently push the upper PCB downward to fully seat the pins in their sockets.
   

6. Using a Phillips-head screwdriver, reassemble the rest of the USB Hub, by reinstalling the four screws removed in step 2) into the PCB, and replacing the metal panel on the USB hub, before reinstalling the six screws removed in step 1).

Connect a DC Power Source

1. If the Termimal Block Connector is already inserted into the hub, remove it.

2. Using a small screwdriver (Phillips or Flat Head), loosen the screws for the terminal block connectors.

3. Connect the power and ground wires from your DC power source to the proper terminal block connectors and fasten the screws. The terminals are marked on the hubs casing.
   Note: Ensure the polarity of the input power is correctly matched with the terminal block pins to ensure proper function.
   

4. Reinsert the terminal block housing into the hubs casing. The “Power” LED on the hub should then light up green.

DIN Rail Mounting:

Fasten and secure the provided DIN rail clips and screws to the rear of the hubs casing, and then mount on your DIN rail.

Wall-Mounting:

Fasten and secure the hub to your wall using the hubs integrated wall-mounting holes and screws.
