Installation; Using Your Mobile Mini Hub - Targus USB Mobile Mini Hub User Manual

The USB Mobile Mini Hub can be powered by the notebook USB port (bus-
powered) or by the included AC adapter (self-powered). Bus-powered usage is
ideal for standard low-power devices, such as a keyboard or a mouse. Typically any
device requiring 100 mA of power or less can be used on the Mini Hub in bus-
powered mode. However, if you are using high-power devices, such as a printer,
camera, or scanner, Targus recommends using the AC adapter. The USB Mobile
Mini Hub will alert you when there is not enough power for a particular port to
power your device. In self-powered mode, the port's LED will turn red when this
occurs. In bus-powered mode, the computer's port would most likely shut down
causing the Mini Hub to go into shutdown mode, indicated by the green LEDs
turning off.
