Install additional units by adding them one at a time. To install multiple RocketPort USB Hubs in the same
system, use the following procedure.
Note: Do not disconnect a RocketPort USB Serial Hub unless you plan on removing the hardware and
software. If you physically disconnect one unit and then connect another unit, the COM ports become
unstable.

installation will fail.
