• If the device does not have a power jack, add a power adapter with 9–12 VDC
and less that 1-A current rating to the unit.
• Make sure the USB cable is well-seated for good communications.
• Remove all power sources to the unit by unplugging all USB A–B cables and the
power adapter; then start all over again.
• Select the computer by push button, restart the computer, and try again.
Symptom: Computer hangs up while switching computers.

communication.
• Turn off the device driver (not the keyboard or the mouse) before computer
switching.

plugging/unplugging the PC’s video connector(s).
