Page 9: Installation
Installation Association Procedures Two methods exist to assist you in setting up the wireless security and association with your Hub: PIN and Cable. -
Page 10: Pin-Association Procedure
Installation PIN-Association Procedure When you initially set up the Hub, you must “associate” it with the host computer. To do this, enter the PIN (product identification number) found on the bottom of the Hub into the Wireless USB Manager. This “PIN association” procedure is one of two supported methods to establish a secure wireless connection. -
Page 11: Cable-Association Procedure
Installation Cable-Association Procedure When you initially set up the Hub, you must “associate” it with the host computer. To do this, connect the Hub to your computer using the provided USB cable. This “cable association” procedure is the second optional method of establishing a secure wireless connection. - Page 12 Installation Automatic Connect Feature When the association procedure is completed, the Hub by default automatically connects to the host computer whenever it is within operating range. If desired, you can select another method for how the Hub will wirelessly connect to your computer. This setup may be changed later.
