2-42 General Description
Floppy Disk Drive
A USB floppy disk drive is attached to the main unit. It allows you to read and write (save) data
using floppy disks.
The USB floppy disk drive accepts the following types of floppy disks:
2HD floppy disk (1.44MB)
2DD floppy disk (720KB)
Drive letter of floppy disk drive
The drive letter will change when the primary PCI module is switched to the standby PCI module
while the Windows operating system is in operation. The drive letter of the floppy disk will be
determined as follows:
“A” will be assigned to the floppy disk drive for the PCI module that is operating as the primary
PCI module during Windows operating system boot-up. “B” will be assigned to the floppy disk
drive for the standby PCI module.
Ex) If a floppy disk drive was connected for the first time while the primary PCI module is group 1.
Primary PCI module
PCI module (for group 1): A drive
PCI module (for group 2): B drive
IMPORTANT:
In the event that the active PCI module switches to the standby PCI module
due to a failure while the system is in operation, the floppy disk drive letter will change at the
point PCI module switches to the standby module.
