Adaptec ACS-120 User Manual

Windows 98SE users only—You must install the device 

drivers before connecting and powering on the enclosure.

Plug the mini-connector of the included USB Y-cable (shown on 

) into the USB port on the enclosure, then plug the main 

connector into an available USB 2.0 port on your computer. 

When your computer is powered on, the enclosure is also powered 
on. See

You have successfully installed and connected your Adaptec 
ACS-120 enclosure.

The Adaptec ACS-120 USB Enclosure is bus-powered. However, if 
you connect the enclosure to an adapter (such as a CardBus) that is 
not able to supply adequate power, you may see one of these 
messages:

USB Power Surge

 (Windows XP)

The hub doesn’t have enough power available...

 (Windows 2000)

USB power exceeded

 (Windows Me and Windows 98SE)

If one of these messages appears, provide more power to the 
enclosure:

■

First, try connecting the secondary connector on the Y-cable to 
your computer. For instructions, see

■

If the problem persists, connect an external power supply (not 
included) to the enclosure. For instructions, see
