SUMMARY OF CONTROLS AND CONNECTIONS
REAR VIEW
1. Power switch
2. Connector to computer
3. Audio Right, Left
4. Power inlet
5. Connector to printer
Item Explanation
1. Power switch (toggle) to apply power to the drive (if power is
switched on, then the power-LED on front of the drive will be on).
2. Parallel port connector, to be used for connecting to the parallel
(printer) port of the computer.
3. Right and Left stereo audio line out connectors, RCA type.
An external stereo sound system can be connected to these RCA
connectors, for amplifying the sound of discs played on the drive.
4. Power inlet (3 prong)
Use an appropriate mating power cable to connect the drive to
the mains AC power. The drive has an autosensing power sup¬
ply (100 - 240 VAC nominal, 50-60 Hz), so any voltage within that
range can be used.

For USA: Use a UL listed cordset consisting of a minimum 18AWG, type SVT or
SJT three conductor cord, a maximum of 15 feet in length, and a parallel blade,
grounding type attachment plug rated 15A, 260 VAC.

Protection
The power supply in the unit is protected against:
- over-power situations, recovery after power situation is
corrected.
- over-voltage situations, by an internal fuse.
- short circuit, recovery after short is corrected on the primary
side.
On the secundary side, i.e. the +5 VDC and +12 VDC used for the
internal drive, the power supply will simply shutdown in case of a
short circuit; until the error condition causing it is relieved.
Over-voltage will blow a Zener diode. Both the fuse and the Zener
are accesable for authorised personal only.
