CPi A-Series System User's Guide
Your computer was shipped with a 3.5-inch diskette drive (see
) in the modular bay. To use another
device in the modular bay, first remove the diskette drive. For detailed instructions on installing devices in the
modular bay, see
NOTE: If the computer is docked to the C/Port Advanced Port Replicator (APR) or the C/Dock
Expansion Station, turn off the computer and undock it before installing or removing a diskette drive.
The diskette drive lets you install programs and transfer data using 3.5-inch diskettes.
Figure 1. Diskette Drive
To use the diskette drive, insert a 3.5-inch diskette into the drive (label side up and metal end first). Push the
diskette into the drive until the eject button extends outside the drive casing.
CAUTION:
Do not travel with a diskette in the diskette drive. Doing so could break the eject
button and damage the drive.
To remove a diskette from the drive, press the eject button to release the diskette, and then pull the diskette
out of the drive.
When data is being accessed from the diskette drive in the modular bay, the drive access indicator blinks.
NOTE: The diskette drive can be used externally by connecting it to the parallel connector on the back
of the computer. If the
Diskette Reconfig
option is enabled in the System Setup program, you do not
have to reboot the computer when you connect the diskette drive to the parallel connector.
