Notes
Be sure to connect the MAUSB-100 to your computer AFTER installing the device driver/utility
software.
Make sure the connector is fully inserted.
When inserting the connector, make sure it is oriented correctly (refer to the pictures below). Inserting the
connector incorrectly may damage the connector and/or the computer’s USB port.
Make sure there is adequate space around the computer to connect the MAUSB-100 to the computer
properly.
If there is not enough space for the MAUSB-100 around the computer to allow a direct connection, use the
provided USB extension cable. Connecting the MAUSB-100 to the computer incorrectly may result in
damage to the connector and/or the computer's USB port.
Do not apply force to the computer's USB port or the MAUSB-100 when removing/inserting a card from/into
the MAUSB-100 if it is directly connected to the computer's USB port.

The status lamps may look in orange as both the green and red status lamps light together.
Do not release the hold switch, remove the card or disconnect the MAUSB-100 from the computer while the red
status lamp is lit. Doing so may destroy the data stored on the card.
The green and red status lamps blink slowly if the card is not recognized correctly. When this happens, follow the
instructions in “4 Removing a card” (
p. 13) to remove the card from the MAUSB-100, then wipe the contact
area with a dry cloth, and insert the card again. If the problem persists, the card may be damaged.
