Introduction
What is iBOT2?
Orange Micro is first to market the iBOT2, a USB 2.0-based desktop video camera. IBOT2 harnesses the speed and power
of USB 2.0 technology unmatched by the slower USB 1.1-based web cams. Orange Micro's iBOT2is the desktop video
camera for the rest of us, providing crisp, clear video at a price you can afford.
What is USB 2.0?
USB 2.0 technology extends the speed of the USB connection from 12 Mbps on USB 1.1 up to 480 Mbps on USB 2.0,
providing an attachment point for next-generation peripherals which complement higher performance PCs and user
applications. USB 2.0 is both forward and backward compatible with USB 1.1, resulting in a seamless transition process for
the end user. In fact, USB 2.0 uses the same cables and connectors as USB 1.1.
iBOT2 Features
Exclusive USB 2.0 Speed and Clarity
With a data transfer rate that's 4000% times faster than traditional USB 1.1 web cams, you'll experience a Video Frame
Rate of 30 frames/second. And that's with a big 640 x 480 image size in living color.
Create, Edit and Retouch Photos
Create, edit and retouch your photos, then add special effects or place them in cards, calendars, frames and templates.
Polish Your Presentations
With clarity only iBOT2can provide, you can record and save super-crisp video in your home or office. Spice up important
presentations with film clips. Hone your persuasion skills with instant video feedback.
Affordable Movie Making
iBOT2can make you a star! Record special family events, such as Christmas, Thanksgiving dinner, or even just everyday
life. Produce your own documentaries. The iBOT2's 480 Mb/s data transfer speed lets you easily input, edit, and show-off
movies with pride.
Video Teleconferencing for the Internet
With Microsoft NetMeeting, you can talk to anyone, face-to-face, via the Internet, with a whole new level of clarity. Whether
it’s the grandparents, relatives, or old friends you haven't seen, only iBOT2provides quality video conferencing unmatched
by older USB 1.1 web cams.
Video E-Mail
Attach super-clear video clips to your email for a whole new dimension of communication. Show off brand-new additions to
your family immediately! Send video greetings from Fiji! Keep the people you love updated on what you're up to.

Finalizing USB 2.0 Hi-Speed hardware settings
OrangeUSB 2.0 Hi-Speed products that use an NEC chipset have 3 USB host controller engines on board. Two of the host
controller engines handle USB 1.1 transactions. One of the host controllers engines handle, USB 2.0 transactions.
USB data traffic is automatically routed to the proper host controller engine depending on the speed of the device that is
plugged into the OrangeUSB port. This essentially creates 3 concurrent USB buses. These USB buses allow devices to run
in a less congested traffic environment. This helps devices such as color printers, scanners, video cameras and mass
storage devices, which require a high bandwidth, to work well together.
The OrangeUSB USB 2.0 Host Controller driver handles USB 2.0 Hi-Speed (480 Mbits/s) traffic. The two NEC USB Open
Host Controllers handle Full-Speed (12 Mb/s) and Low-Speed (1.5 Mb/s) traffic.
Check your Windows System/Device Manager to confirm proper installation of USB 2.0 Hi-Speed drivers:
Right click on the “My Computer” icon. Select Properties from the pop up menu, then click on the “Device Manager” tab.
Scroll down to the “Universal Serial Bus controllers” category and click on the plus sign next to it. There may be additional
devices in the list being displayed, but all of the below devices should appear.
An X through a device’s icon means the device as been disabled. A circled exclamation point through the device’s icon
means the device has a problem. The type of problem will appear in the Properties dialog box for the device. To view the
Properties dialog box for a device, double click on it.
