7. Troubleshooting
This chapter covers some basic things you can do in the event that you encounter 
problems using this DiskMaster on your system. 
Why does the computer not recognize the Smart Backup Disk?
Steps
Action
1
Make sure that both USB plugs are properly connected to your host 
USB ports. Do not only connect the auxiliary USB plug. 
2
Make sure that your host USB port is working properly. If you are 
unsure, please try another USB port. 
3
If the error persists, you may have a hardware problem. In this 
case, you should contact your vendor. 
 
Why is the data transfer rate between the computer and the device 
slowing down?
Steps
Action
1
You may be connected to an USB 1.1 low speed port. Please make 
sure that you have connected to a high speed USB2.0 host port. The 
DiskMaster can work at both USB 1.1 and USB 2.0 ports. However, 
to achieve a hi-speed transfer rate, we recommend you to connect 
the DiskMaster to an USB2.0 port.

If the error persists, you may have a hardware problem. In this 
case, you should contact your vendor. 
Why does the backup button not work?

button manager utility and specify a suitable backup task and saved 
it to a backup file. See “Button Manager Utility Description” section

The Button Manager Utility only works on Windows 2000 and XP
