1Introduction
This chapter provides a brief overview of the AnywhereUSB® Remote I/O
Concentrator.
Product Overview
The AnywhereUSB® Remote I/O Concentrator is the first remote
networking solution to utilize USB over IP® technology, breaking the
traditional five meter distance limitation between USB device and host.
Now USB devices may be located anywhere on a wired or wireless LAN –
without a locally attached host PC. Since the host PC or server may be
located remotely, AnywhereUSB enables devices to be deployed in harsh
or non-secure environments, making it ideal for point-of-sale, kiosks,
surveillance, industrial automation, or any mission-critical enterprise
application. This Ethernet-attached solution provides five USB ports to
connect peripheral devices such as bar-code scanners and receipt
printer, as well as Digi’s Watchport®/V2 USB Camera and Watchport
Sensors.

Interpreting the Status LEDs
The AnywhereUSB has six LEDs on the front panel: one System Status
LED and five hub LEDs. Each LED is capable of displaying three colors:
red, green, or orange.
System Status LEDs
On initial power up the System Status LED is orange for two seconds
while the system initializes and then blinks green. If DHCP is enabled and
the unit is booting up, the System Status LED will be orange while the
AnywhereUSB searches for a DHCP server. If it cannot find a DHCP
server, it will return to the default configuration to allow the Configuration
Utility to assign a static IP address.
Hub LEDs
Green hunting pattern across all LEDs
Not connected to a host PC.
Orange alternating on ports 1-3-5 and 2-4
Updating image in Flash. Do not remove power
from AnywhereUSB while flash is being updated.
Doing so will damage your AnywhereUSB.
Solid Green
Hub port is powered.

1. Insert the Digi AnywhereUSB USB over IP CD into the CD drive.
2. Select Install Drivers from the Digi splash screen (see Figure 3). If
the Digi splash screen does not launch, run the AWSplash.exe
program from the CD.
3. A DOS Box will come up indicating the Install Process was
successful.
4. Press the enter key to exit the DOS Box. The unit is now ready
for configuration (see section 4).
For Windows 2000 and NT4.0
1. Insert the Digi AnywhereUSB USB over IP into the CD drive.
2. Select Install Driver from the Digi splash screen (see Figure 3).
Note: Windows 2000 and NT4.0 install v2.40 drivers only.

installation process is complete, the AnywhereUSB Concentrator
Configuration Utility screen will launch and is now ready for
