USB Guidelines

IMPORTANT!
Read these guidelines before using your Zip USB drive. Keep these guidelines with your Zip USB Users Guide.

About USB

USB (Universal Serial Bus) is a newly developed interface designed to make it easy to connect mice, keyboards, joysticks, and printers to your computer. Because of its ease of use, USB has recently become a means for connecting high speed storage devices, such as the Zip USB drive.
Your Zip USB drive is designed to the latest USB specification (1.1). However, because the specification that defines the USB interface has developed so rapidly, there are some USB devices (including controller chips and hubs) currently available on the market that do not meet the USB 1.1 specification. Serious problems can result when The USB controller chip in the computer does not comply with the USB 1.1 specification. High speed USB devices, such as printers, scanners, cameras, speakers, the Zip USB drive and other mass storage drives, are connected to a computer that has a non-compliant USB controller chip or to a non-compliant USB hub. Low speed USB devices are hot-plugged (that is, connected or disconnected while the computer and the device are powered on) on the same system with high speed USB devices.
If you experience any of the following problems when using your Zip USB drive Your Zip USB drive stops responding (hangs) The system stops responding (locks up) Information gets lost or corrupted while you are saving or copying files
The problems are probably due to a non-compliant USB controller chip or other USB device on your computer system. Carefully follow the USB guidelines on the opposite page they are designed to help you avoid some of the problems caused by non-compliant USB devices. If the problems continue, your computer may have a USB controller chip or hub that does not comply with the USB 1.1 specification. In this case, contact your computer manufacturer for help.
CAUTION! USB devices (including controller chips, hubs, cables, cards, mice, joysticks, and peripherals) that do not comply with the USB 1.1 specification may cause system lockups or possible data loss when used with your Zip USB drive. If you are not sure that a USB device complies with the USB 1.1 specification, contact the manufacturer of the device.
Follow these guidelines to ensure optimal and reliable performance of your Zip USB drive and other USB devices. (Also, see back cover.)

You can

You can use your Zip USB drive on an iMac or a Windows 98 PC with USB. You can connect or disconnect your Zip USB drive while the computer is on. You can optimize your Zip drives performance by using it as a single connected USB device on your computer. The performance of all USB devices decreases as additional USB devices are connected. You can ensure maximum performance by connecting your Zip USB drive directly to your computer. You can improve the reliability of your Zip USB drive by unplugging and reconnecting the power supply after a system crash or hang. You can avoid some of the problems caused by devices that do not comply with the USB 1.1 specification by turning off power to the computer and all connected devices before connecting any low speed USB devices (such as keyboards, mice, or joysticks). You can avoid some system lockups by waiting at least 30 seconds after hot-plugging or disconnecting any USB device. (This allows the system to re-enumerate the USB bus.) Do not connect, disconnect or use any other USB device during this time.

Do not

Do not connect or disconnect any USB device while the Zip USB drive is transferring information data loss will result! NOTE: If the amber activity light is on, the Zip drive is transferring information. Wait to connect or disconnect any USB device until the amber activity light goes out and stays out. Do not use any USB cable with your Zip drive other than the cable that came with the drive. Never use USB extension cables with your Zip USB drive data loss may result. If your computer has a USB controller that does not comply with the USB 1.1 specification, do not connect or use any low speed USB devices (such as keyboards, mice, or joysticks) while your Zip USB drive or other high speed USB devices are connected. Data loss may result. Do not disconnect your Zip USB drive or unplug power to the Zip USB drive while a Zip disk is inserted. Do not connect more than two Zip USB drives to a single computer.

USB Troubleshooting

If the Zip USB drive is not assigned a drive letter or does not appear in My Computer, try manually assigning a drive letter. 1. Right mouse click on the icon for My Computer and select Properties. 2. Click the tab for Device Manager. 3. Click the plus sign ( + ) next to Disk drives. 4. Double click the drive icon for Iomega Zip 100. (If Iomega Zip 100 is not listed, refer to the Zip USB Users Guide for additional troubleshooting suggestions.) 5. Click the tab for Settings. 6. Look for the box titled Reserved drive letters towards the bottom of the drive settings window. Select the drive letter you want to use in the dialog box for Start drive letter. Note that the same drive letter should appear in the dialog box for End drive letter. 7. Reboot your system for the new drive letter to take effect.
NOTE: If you disconnect your Zip USB drive and reconnect to the same USB port, the drive should be reassigned the same drive letter automatically. If you reconnect to a different USB port, you will have to manually reassign the drive letter.
