4.5 USB and serial communication
4.5.1 USB port
The USB connector is used to connect the NextMove e100 to a PC running Mint WorkBench.
The NextMove e100 is a self-powered, USB 1.1 (12 Mbps) compatible device. If it is
connected to a slower USB 1.0 host PC or hub, communication speed will be limited to the
USB 1.0 specification (1.5 Mbps). If it is connected to a faster USB 2.0 (480 Mbps) or
USB 3.0 (5 Gbps) host PC or hub, communication speed will remain at the USB1.1
specification of the NextMove e100.
Ideally, the NextMove e100 should be connected directly to a USB port on the host PC. If it is
connected to a hub shared by other USB devices, communication could be affected by the
activity of the other devices. The maximum recommended cable length is 5 m (16.4 ft).
