POWER SAVING
The PCMCIA CD-ROM drive will automatically enter the sleep mode
(spindle off) when it has not been accessed for about 4 minutes. Also,
you can manually get into the sleep mode by removing the Compact
Disc (CD) from your CD-ROM drive. The operating current will then be
reduced to 120 mA.
The “Hot insert/remove” feature of a PCMCIA card helps to save power.
If PCMCIA software that is Exchangeable Card Architecture (ExCA)
compliant has been loaded on to your computer, then you can remove
the PCMCIA CD-ROM interface card from your system after being
booted, and insert it again when you need to use the CD-ROM device.
For notebook computer users, removing the card will preserve power
and prolong battery life.
Note: It is acceptable to remove and insert the PCMCIA CD-ROM from
your computer at any time, however, DO NOT disconnect the PCMCIA
card from your CD-ROM drive.
