5. 操作手順

Once installed, the TCC-QL5E operates as an extension of your PC's internal ports.

• USB ポート: Connect USB devices (e.g., flash drives, external hard drives, keyboards, mice) to the available USB 2.0 or USB 3.0 ports. USB 3.0 ports offer higher transfer speeds for compatible devices.
• カード読み取り装置： Insert compatible memory cards (SD, MMC, CF, MS, TF, M2) into their respective slots. The system will recognize the card as a removable drive. Only one card can be read at a time.
• e-SATA/SATA Ports: Connect external SATA devices or internal SATA drives (if routed externally) to these ports for high-speed data transfer.
• オーディオ ポート: Plug in headphones or a microphone to the front panel audio jacks for convenient access.

6. メンテナンス

To ensure optimal performance and longevity of your TCC-QL5E unit:

• Keep the front panel clean and free of dust. Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning.
• Avoid inserting foreign objects into the ports or card reader slots.
• Ensure proper ventilation around your PC to prevent overheating, which can affect all internal components.
• Periodically check cable connections inside the PC to ensure they remain secure.

7。 トラブルシューティング

If you encounter issues with your TCC-QL5E, consider the following:

• デバイスが認識されません: Ensure all internal cables (USB 3.0, USB 2.0, SATA, power) are securely connected to both the TCC-QL5E and the motherboard/PSU.
• USB 2.0 Ports or Card Reader Not Functioning: Some units may have an incorrect pinout for the USB 2.0 header cable. If these ports are not working, carefully check the wiring of the USB 2.0 connector. The standard pinout for a USB 2.0 header is typically: Pin 1 (VCC), Pin 2 (D-), Pin 3 (D+), Pin 4 (GND). If the wires are incorrectly arranged, you may need to re-pin the connector. This requires careful removal and reinsertion of the individual pins.
• USB転送速度が遅い: Ensure you are using the USB 3.0 ports for USB 3.0 compatible devices. USB 2.0 ports will operate at their maximum speed of 480Mbps.
• オーディオが機能しない: Verify the audio header cable is correctly connected to the motherboard's front panel audio header. Check your PC's audio settings to ensure the front panel audio is enabled and configured correctly.
• 電力の問題: Confirm the 4-pin IDE power connector is firmly seated and correctly oriented (refer to Image 4.3). An incorrect connection can lead to a short circuit or non-functional ports.
