Precautions
●
Before using the adapter, make sure there is adequate space around the computer’s USB port so that the
adapter can be connected properly. Plugging in the adapter forcibly may damage the adapter and/or USB port.
●
In some cases, depending on your computer system’s operating environment (i.e. hardware, software, and
device drivers), the adapter may not work properly.
●
The adapter may not function properly when connected to a PC via a USB port on a USB hub, keyboard or
display. In this case, connect the adapter directly to the computer’s USB port.
●
Versions of Windows 98/Me upgraded from Windows 3.1/95, or Windows 2000 upgraded from Windows 95/NT
4.0/NT 3.51 may not work properly. In this case, you may need to reinstall your OS.
●
Do not pull the card out of the card slot, or unplug the adapter while the status lamp is blinking.
Doing
so may destroy data on the card or damage the card.
●
You must format the card on a digital camera regularly. If the card inserted into the adapter has been formatted
with the connected computer, it may not be recognized by a digital camera. For details on formatting with a
camera, refer to the camera’s instruction manual.
If your camera does not recognize a card formatted on another device, re-format the card with your camera.
(Cards formatted with non-DOS formatting systems are not recognized by the adapter.)
●
The adapter does not support computer power-saving functions. Turn off the power-saving function before you
use the adapter with your computer.
●
It is not possible to connect two or more MAUSB-200 adapters to a single PC at the same time.
●
Do not swing the strap while attaching it to the adapter. Avoid banging the adapter against hard objects.
●
To attach the cap, align the front of the cap with the front of the adapter and slide it into place.
