DRIVER INSTALLATION
Verify that WiCenter is running by double-clicking on the WiCenter icon that was created on the
desktop. Plug-in the Wireless USB Host (power up USB Host), making sure that the extension/swivel
adapter is adjusted to a 45 degree angle to maximize range if using the Wireless USB dongle. Windows
will recognize a new device has been detected and install the drivers automatically for the Wireless USB
Host. Remember that if the Found New Hardware Wizard window appears, follow the steps highlighted
in the previous section.
Once the Wireless USB Host has finished installing, connect the Wireless USB hub to your computer
with the USB cable supplied. Make sure the hub is set to Wireless Mode and Automatic Association in
order to properly install the drivers. Power on the hub at this time, be sure that the power adapter is
connected to the hub and plugged into an ac outlet. If the hub is set to wired mode it will not install
drivers and treat it as a generic wired hub.
Once connected, you will see that Windows has found new hardware in the system tray and the driver
will be installed automatically. Remember that if the Found New Hardware Wizard appears, follow the
steps highlighted in the previous section. This associates the wireless hub with your system and will
only have to be done once in order to gain proper wireless connectivity. Once the drivers have been
installed for the hub, the system should automatically detect an association request and the following
window will become visible.
There are two options available for the Wireless USB association. Select Allow permanent wireless
connection and click OK.

Once association is successful and the HOST LED on the wireless hub has stopped flashing, you may
unplug the USB cable from the wireless hub and the following popup will show up above your system
tray. A solid LED Host light on the hub will indicate that the wireless link has been established.
At this point, a found new hardware window will appear in the system tray and the final driver will be
installed automatically for the Wireless USB hub. Remember that if the Found New Hardware Wizard
window appears, follow the steps highlighted in the previous section.

FCC STATEMENT
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This device is authorized under 47 CFR 15.519 (the FCC Rules and Regulations). The operation of this
device is subject to the following restriction:
This UWB device shall transmit only when it is sending information to an associated receiver. This UWB
device shall cease transmission within 10 seconds unless it receives an acknowledgement from the
associated receiver that its transmission is being received.
An acknowledgement of reception must continue to be received by the transmitting device at least every
10 seconds of operation or the UWB device must cease transmitting.
Warning: Changes or modifications to this device not expressly approved by Alereon could void the

Interference control: Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) is any signal or emission, radiated in free
space or conducted along power or signal leads, that endangers the function of radio navigation or other
safety service (the telephone and cellphones are considered to be safety services) or seriously
degrades, obstructs or repeatedly interrupts a licensed radio communications service. Radio
communications services include but are not limited to: AM/FM commercial broadcast, television,
cellular services, radar, air traffic control, pager and personal communications services (PCS). These
licensed services, along with unintentional radiators such as digital devices, including computer
systems, contribute to the electromagnetic environment.
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) is the ability of items of electronic equipment to function properly
together in the electromagnetic environment. While this device has been designed and determined to
be compliant with regulatory agency limits for EMI, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur
in a particular installation. If this device does cause interference with radio communications services,
which can be determined by turning the device on and off, you are encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
•
Re orient the receiving antenna.
•
Relocate the device with respect to the victim receiver.
•
Move the device away from the victim receiver.
•
Plug the device host into a different power outlet than the victim receiver so that the device
system and receiver are on separate branch circuits.
If necessary, consult your system service representative or an experienced radio/television technician
for additional help in resolving interference.
