تعليمات التشغيل

Using the Hard Drive Dock

• نقل البيانات: Once the drive is recognized by your computer, you can drag and drop files to and from the drive as you would with any other storage device.
• التبديل السريع: The docking station supports hot-swapping. To safely remove a drive, ensure all data transfer operations are complete, then use your operating system's "Safely Remove Hardware" or "Eject" function before pulling the drive out of the bay.
• دعم يو إيه إس بي: For systems supporting UASP, the docking station will leverage this protocol to achieve faster data transfer speeds, especially with SATA 6Gbps drives.

Using the USB Fast Charge Port

• Activate Fast Charge: Flip the "Charge Only" switch on the front panel to the 'ON' position.
• توصيل الجهاز: Connect your mobile device (e.g., smartphone, tablet) to the USB Fast Charge port using its charging cable.
• الشحن: The port will provide enhanced power output for faster charging compared to standard USB ports.

Sleep Mode Functionality

• The "OFF/Sleep" switch on the rear panel controls the docking station's sleep mode behavior. Consult the full product manual for detailed information on sleep mode settings and compatibility.

صيانة

• تنظيف: استخدم قطعة قماش ناعمة وجافة لتنظيف الجزء الخارجي من قاعدة الشحن. لا تستخدم المنظفات السائلة أو المذيبات.
• تخزين: عند عدم الاستخدام، قم بتخزين محطة الإرساء في مكان بارد وجاف بعيدًا عن أشعة الشمس المباشرة ودرجات الحرارة القصوى.

• تأكد من توصيل جهازك بمنفذ USB 3.0. استخدام منافذ USB 2.0 سيؤدي إلى سرعات أبطأ.
• Verify your operating system and drivers support UASP for optimal performance with SATA 6Gbps drives.
• The performance of the drive itself can affect transfer speeds.

Issue: Fast Charge port not working.

• Ensure the "Charge Only" switch on the front panel is in the 'ON' position.
