Installation

  1. USB-C: Power & HID. Connect the USB-C port to the target computer to enable power delivery and peripheral emulation.
  2. Video Capture. Establish the video signal path: Target HDMI -> HDMI Cable -> Capture Dongle -> USBridge USB port.
  3. Network Setup. Access the onboard interface, navigate to Settings -> Internet, select your network, and enter the password. Once connected, the device will display its assigned IP address.
  4. Client Authorization. Open the USBridge App to start the session. You can sync credentials by scanning the QR code in the app, or manually enter the IP address and Access Token.

The main screen provides quick access to the device's core functions. Each section of the main menu is described below.

  • Drives: your library for ISO images where you can browse, select, and mount virtual images directly to your target system.
  • Snapshots: the list of your data snapshots, allowing you to manage, view, or restore previously captured states.
  • Event Log: a complete history of system logs to track device activity, verify successful operations, or audit recent sequences.
  • Settings: the central hub for device configuration, including Wi-Fi and Internet connectivity, System Info, Auth Token management, SD Card Settings, Display adjustments, and Language selection.
  • Monitor: a dedicated diagnostic mode used to observe the real-time behavior of the target host and perform quick troubleshooting.

The side panels of the USBridge device provide the physical interfaces required for power, data transfer, and peripheral emulation.

  • USB-C (Power & Emulation): Powers the device and provides keyboard and mouse HID emulation for the target host.
  • USB-C (HDMI Connectivity): Connects to the target HDMI video source via a compatible capture dongle.
  • 8-pin Connector: Reserved for specialized functionality, including external ATX power management.
  • Micro HDMI: Unused during standard operation. Reserved exclusively for direct low-level diagnostics of the USBridge hardware.
