This guide explains how to install the DuoConnect Host Bus  
Adapter in a PCI slot and how to install its associated drivers. It  
also describes how to connect a USB device and a digital video  
camera.  
Overview  
The DuoConnect adapter enables you to connect USB 1.1 (EHCI),  
USB 2.0 (OHCI), and FireWire (IEEE 1394) devices to your PC-  
compatible or Macintosh computer.  
USB 2.0 is the fastest USB standard, capable of transferring data at  
up to 480 megabits per second. USB 2.0 devices are compatible  
with USB 1.1 devices.  
FireWire is a serial bus protocol similar to USB 2.0. It transfers data  
at speeds of up to 400 megabits per second and is used with  
computer peripherals as well as with consumer electronics, such as  
digital video cameras and game consoles.  
The DuoConnect adapter is a 32-bit, 33-MHz PCI adapter and  
works in any PCI slot.  
Refer to the Readme file on the DuoConnect CD for a list of  
operating systems the DuoConnect adapter supports.

Installing the Macintosh Driver  
DuoConnect and Deep Sleep  
The DuoConnect adapter does not  
support Deep Sleep on Power Macintosh  
G4 computers. When you use the  
DuoConnect installer as described on  
page 27, the DisableSleep driver (shown at right) is installed and  
the Deep Sleep feature is disabled. After you install the  
DuoConnect driver, if you try to put a Power Macintosh G4 into  
Deep Sleep, you will see the message shown below.  
If you want to remove USB connectivity from your Macintosh

Connecting USB Devices  
Connecting USB Devices  
You can connect standard USB 1.1 or high-speed USB 2.0 devices to  
the connectors of the DuoConnect adapter, as shown below.  
Hotplugging  
The DuoConnect adapter supports hot-plugging, allowing USB  
devices to be attached and recognized while the computer is on.  
Device manufacturers support hot-plugging in different ways.  
Refer to the instructions for each device for attaching and mounting  
recommendations.  
Note: Moving a device from one adapter connector to another  
can cause the operating system to initiate a new hardware  
installation process. Refer to the Readme file for details.  
Hubs  
The following figure shows the recommended configuration for  
connecting USB 1.1 and USB 2.0 devices. Note that you could  
connect USB 2.0 devices to a USB 1.1 hub, but the USB 2.0 devices  
would run at USB 1.1 speeds.

Connecting USB Devices  
Connecting a Digital Video Camera  
Two types of FireWire connectors are commonly used: a 4-pin and  
a 6-pin. The DuoConnect adapter contains two external 6-pin  
connectors suitable for use with a camera. Digital video cameras  
use a 4-pin connector and may not include a cable. (Other  
peripherals typically use a 6-pin connector.)  
To attach a digital video camera  
1
Using a standard 6-to-4 pin FireWire cable (included in the kit)  
plug the larger, 6-pin connector of the cable into an external  
FireWire port on the DuoConnect adapter.

Plug the smaller, 4-pin connector of the FireWire cable into the  
FireWire port on your digital video camera.  
Caution: When inserting the FireWire 4-pin connector into the  
digital video camera, make sure the connector and the port  
are properly aligned. Otherwise, you might bend and damage  
the pins in the connector of the camera.
