You can go 5 meters or around 16 feet from a computers USB port or from a powered USB hub to a USB device. Back To Questions

Before inserting your USB memory stick, please log in to the machine directly (not via SSH from another system). Logging in at the console will ensure that the USB memory device is mounted with you as the owner. It is safest to insert the device into one of the USB ports on the front of the computer (rather than those on the back or on the keyboard). See similar questions...

The exact error message looks like Could not find USB device (vendor 0x0000, product 0x0000). Make sure this device is connected to the computer You have to set up the permissions on your USB device correctly. See Section 4.3, "Setting up permissions for USB ports". See similar questions...

The requirement is similar to that of USB 1.1, but all components will have to be USB 2.0 compliant. A successful USB... See similar questions...

Windows 98 default supports only USB 1.1. Install a USB 2.0 PCI adapter then USB 2.0 device still can work fine in Windows 98. Some device such as Micronet´s USB 2.0 adapter, it includes a USB 2.0 driver written by third party so it can work in Windows 98SE. See similar questions...

Solaris supports Digi InsideOut Networks' devices and recently, KeySpan and Prolific chipset based devices' support were also integrated to Solaris. Keyspan and Prolific USB serial drivers are available in Solaris Express dated 2/2006 and in Solaris 10 Update 2 and later. PL2303 chip based adapters and Keyspan USA-19HS adapter are available as part of Solaris 10 Update 2. Keyspan USA-49WLC adapter is supported in Solaris Express dated 3/2006 and will be available in Solaris 10 update 3. See similar questions...

Not only will it not work, you may damage your device. In order for a device to work with USB it must be compatible and have appropriate drivers. Some early releases of the Freestyle Pro and Precision Pro were not USB compatible; if it did not come with an adapter you are out of luck. See similar questions...

The exact message looks like *** Error ('Could not claim the USB device') *** Could not claim interface 0 (Operation not permitted). Make sure no other program or kernel module (e.g. dc2xx or stv680) is using the device and you have read/write access to the device. You have to make sure that no such kernel module is loaded and that you have set up the permissions on your USB device correctly, such that you have (non-root) write access to the camera device.

A4: If X is less than 25m or so (see previous question), buy a bunch of hubs and connect them serially with 5m cables. If you need to go farther than that, put another PC, or maybe a laptop, out where you need the device to be and network it with the first PC using something that's intended to be a long-range connection, such as Ethernet or RS-485. If you need to use nothing but USB, consider using USB based Ethernet adapters to hook the PCs together. See similar questions...

It might seem that the USB device is fairly slow, especially when writing to the device. This is for two reasons: Firstly, USB devices are substantially slower than hard drives or other high-speed media; furthermore, larger-capacity flash memory devices are often slower for write access than low-capacity devices. Secondly, we mount the device in "synchronous" mode, which makes writes seem slower than the more common "asynchronous" mode. See similar questions...

The maximum length for a USB cable is 5 meters (197 inches). The power transferred through a USB cable that is greater than 5 meters in length will start to decrease, and the device may not function properly. See similar questions...

You can either manually configure /etc/conf.modules (or /etc/modules.conf with 2.4-ready versions of modutils) to load the modules you require like this; alias usb uhci post-install uhci modprobe printer post-install printer modprobe joydev post-install joydev modprobe hid This makes sure the modules I need for my joystick and printer are loaded, if you modify your system startup to "modprobe usb". See similar questions...

Yes, but only Prolific based devices connected to an uhci controller are supported (ohci and ehci are not supported). this time, there are no secure USB commands to transfer data to or from a USB mass storage device. If you are concerned about USB security, please add the following lines to the file /etc/system exclude: drv/scsa2usb See similar questions...

Foxmail uses the absolute path ONLY for accounts(mailboxes) located in the folder selected by the user... If you create your accounts in the default location (\mail), Foxmail could be used from any logical drive (like on USB drives wich can have different drive letters allocated in each different computer) without any problems arising while doing so.

Each USB controller on a computer can use up to 127 devices making it almost limitless. To get to 127 devices you do need to use USB hubs. Remember that each USB hub you use counts as a USB device. Back To Questions See similar questions...

The USB specification allows for up to 127 USB peripheral devices to be used in a single system. Quatech 1-8 port adapters require one USB port, 16-port adapters require two USB ports. Thus, by using a series of hubs, up to 127 Quatech 8-port adapters or 63 16-port adapters can be used. This means that (using 127 eight port adapters) a single USB port can be used to connect 1016 serial devices. See similar questions...

Close all the files accessed from the USB Device. Click the green icon on the system tray. Click on "Stop USB Mass Storage Device" A window would appear "The USB Mass Storage Device device can now be safely removed from the system." Click "OK" and then unplug the USB Device. Note: The green icon do not appear on Windows 98SE Operating System. Just make sure no files are open and then remove the USB Device. See similar questions...

Under certain circumstances the T8 will fail to recongize a USB device which is attached to the T8 before turning ON the T8. As a workaround, try turning ON the T8 first, then attaching the problematic USB device. This may allow the T8 to recognize the device properly. See similar questions...
