USB Ports
A single USB port with a Type-A connector is present on the front panel. The port is USB 2.0 only, and can
be used for USB sticks. We recommend that you do not use this in a hazardous location without mechanical
constraint. All front panel USB ports are equipped with a screw hole for mechanical constraint. The USB port
can provide a maximum current of 500mA at 5V.
A single USB port (micro-B) is provided for console access on the front panel. If your laptop or PC displays
a message that you do not have the proper drivers to communicate with the IR1800, you can obtain them from
your computer manufacturer.
If you are connecting to the USB port, note the following points:
• A connection to the USB port can only be made in a nonhazardous environment.
• The USB port cover must be reinstalled before the router can be deployed in a hazardous environment.
