Purpose of USB port
The bell system's USB port will connect to a Windows compatible PC. Management Suite software running on the PC is a collection of utilities and applications that provides additional functionality to the bell system.

- All solid state rack mountable carillons rear panel at left bottom corner (Six-SS, Millennium, Platinum)
- All black wall mounted bell control panels on bottom surface (2106, 2108, 2206, 2208)
Connecting the bell system to a PC
Connect the cable between the PC and the bell system only after the Management Suite driver software has been installed.
If you wish to access this PC remotely, you can do this using a remote desktop host/client such as,
- Windows Remote Desktop Connection (included with Windows) over the local area network or VPN (or port forwarding if you understand the risks)
- GoToMyPC and LogMeIn are premium programs with expensive subscriptions
Cable type
The USB cable has a Male A connector on the PC end and a Male B connector on the bell system end. Length of the cable should be ten feet or less. A quality cable that has been tested to work on Chime Master systems is available for order.
