22.1. Using a USB drive causes Cypher to lose communication
22.1.1. Problem Summary
A USB memory stick or portable USB drive is plugged into the front panel of the computer, causing
all sorts of communication errors to show up in the Igor log window. A customer may report only the
communication errors, not remembering they were using a portable USB device at the time.
22.1.2. Workaround
This applies only to Dell T3400 and T3500 computers.
• Plug Cypher, ARC, mouse and keyboard into the bottom USB ports.
• USB 2.0 devices like USB drives and printers and LCD monitor hubs may now safely be plugged
into the remaining non-circled ports, including the two USB ports on the front of the computer.
