AFW6-4 Quick Start Guide
The Apricorn AFW6-4 FireWire Adapter kit enables you to connect and power
your Aegis FireWire drive (6pin) or any other 6-pin FireWire peripheral to an
unpowered 4 pin FireWire or iLink port.
INSTRUCTIONS
(see diagram below)
1. Plug the FireWire 6pin - 4pin Adapter into the 4-pin port on your computer.
2. Insert the included AC Adapter into the FireWire Adapter as shown below.
3. Plug the AC Adapter into the power socket - the 6-pin port is now powered.
4. Your AFW6-4 FireWire Adapter is now ready to power your drive. Plug your
Aegis drive or other FireWire peripheral into the powered 6-pin FireWire port.
Please note that when the
AFW6-4 FireWire Adapter kit is
plugged into a power source,
the 6-pin FireWire port on the
