5. BASIC OPERATIONS
This section describes the operation relating to PC cards. For installation,
refer to Section 6 “Using with a Macintosh computer” and Section 7 “Using
with an IBM PC/AT compatible computer”.
Inserting the PC card
1. Insert the PC card into the slot in the correct direction as shown in the
figure below, then push the card in all the way until the eject button pops
out.
NOTE: Be careful not to insert the PC card in the wrong direction. If it is forced in, the
slot or PC card may be damaged or data on the card may be lost. For SF
series units which have one Smart Media slot, be sure to insert the Smart
Media with the gold contacts facing down.
2. With a Macintosh computer, the lock indicator lights first and then the PC
card icon appears on the monitor. This is the “mounted” state, which
enables read and write operations for the PC card. The time required
between card insertion and mounting depends on the PC card. Usually,
the PC card can be mounted within several seconds.
