W&T The W&T USB Port Redirector
5.4 Using USB devices - Plug/Unplug
To enable a USB device connected on the USB-Server in the
Windows plug and play system, it must be included using the
configuration tool. Compared with a local computer, this
corresponds to plugging the device into a USB port. Windows
then installs any existing standard drivers (e.g. many memory
sticks), keyboards, etc.) or starts the search for device-specific
drivers.
5.4.1 System response / conflict protection
A USB device can be used by only one PC at any given time.
Only after the latter has closed the connection can the device
be used by a different computer. The information as to whether
a USB device is already in use can be found in the Users column
in the inventory list.
The procedure described below for including a USB device is
irrespective of any conflict. If the desired USB device is in use,
the USB Port Redirector cyclically attempts to open a
connection.

Conflict protection refers to the respective USB port to
which the device is connected. This means a
simultaneous access from two PCs to different USB ports is of
course not a problem.
5.4.2 Adding a USB device - Plug
Select the desired USB device in the inventory list of the
configuration tool and right-click on it. You can also double-
click on the desired device.
