To install the MTUSB-1 hardware, please execute the following steps in the exact order:

1. Connect one end of the USB cable to the MTUSB-1 and the other end to the PC.
2. Connect one end of the I2C cable to the MTUSB-1 and the other end to the system/board you 

wish to control via the I2C interface. If the system/board uses a 3-pin connector instead of a 
9-pin connector, connect the appropriate converter cable as an extension to the I2C cable on 
the 9-pin end, then connect its 3-pin end to the system/board.

The MTUSB-1 device requires that the Mellanox Firmware Tools (MFT) package be installed on 
the machine to which MTUSB-1 is connected – see Section 1.4,“MFT Installation,” on page 10 of 
this manual for installation instructions.

For a Windows machine, it is also required to install the MTUSB-1 driver – visit http://www.dio-
lan.com to download this driver. This driver is required for the first use of the MTUSB-1 device.

Once you have the requirements installed, you may verify that your MTUSB-1 device is detected 
by MFT software as described below.
