Cauti o ns
Whereas problems and malfunctions occurring with a mini floppy disk
drive
can be resolv ed relatively easily, malf u nctions and improper use are
extremely difficult to correct on this hard disk drive. Accordingly, be
sure
to follow the below precautions whenever using this unit.
1) Back-up
copy
This.unit is designed to assure high reliability. However, back up
copies of all programs and data should be retained on separate mini
floppy disks to prevent loss or damage of the same in the event
of improper operation or unit malfunction. Remember that correc·
tion of damaged data and programs may not be possible if back-up
copies are not retained. Refer to the manual for software sup-
porting this unit to make back- up copies.
2)
During unit access
Do
not turn the power switch ON/OFF while the power for this
and the main computer are on as this may result in damage to the
data recorded on the disk or unit malfunction.
3) Moving the hard disk drive
This
is a precision device, requiring particular care in hand ling and
transportation.
Before moving this unit execute the
HDTRNS
command (explained below) to position the head where it will be
least affected by vibration and si ight shocks.
Command
execution:
Input
HDTRNS
m
from
the
key·
board.
4)
Power ON/OFF
To turn the power on, first turn the power for this device and
other peripherals on, and then turn the main unit power on.
Similarly, first turn the main unit off, and then turn off this drive
and other peripherals.
5)
Operation
Wait at least
15 sec. after turning the pov!er on before operating
this device.
6)
Vibrations and shocks
Do
not subject this device
to any shocks or vibrations during
operation.
7)
Rapid temperature changes
To move this unit to where the temperature is more than 10° C
different from its present location, first place it where the tempera·
ture difference is less than 10°C for one hour, and then gradually
increase or decrease the temperature.

Notes from the manufacturer
1) This device is made with LSis and other high precision parts. Avoid
rapid
temperature changes, and use in places where there is excessive
dust or high humidity. Also avoid use in direct sunlight. These
conditions may result in unit damage or malfunctio ns.
2) Do
not run the power cord where it may be caught and pulled by
your feet as this may result in shorts or power outages.
3) Do not pull the power cord suddenly or forcefully. Only disconnect
the power cord after the power has been turn off .
4) Do
not pull on the connector cables. Do not move this devi ce with
the connector cables connected.
5) Do not hit, drop, tilt, or reverse the position of this device. Such
movement, particularly during operation, may res ult in malfuctions.
6) Set this device on a firm, level surface.
7) Do
not use this device near other equipment ge nerating excessive
noise.
Furthermore, connect this device and such noise-generating
devices
to separate power circuits to avoid malfunctions.
8) Do
not place other objects on top of this device or co ver the air
vent with a cloth or other object.

(Case of 4-slots.)
1) First turn the power of the main unit and periphera ls off, and then
insert the hard disk card at the add-on port.
The add-on port must be converted to a large port for connection of
the hard disk card. Refer to the Owner's ManuaL
2) Next,
connect the slot angle. Two slot angles are included; use the
one matching the size of the add-on unit slot cover.
3) When inserting
the hard disk card into the add-on unit, be sure to
raise the center of the card.
4) Connect the connector of this HOD to tha hard disk connector port
at the add-on slot on the rear of the main unit on which the hard
disk card
is installed. Connect the two HOD con nectors to the add-
on slot port as shown below.

5) Secure both sides of the connector angles with screws when the
connection is completed.
Note 1: Be sure to turn the power for the HOD, main unit, and all
peripherals off before connecting or disconn ecting any con-
nectors.
Connection/disconnection with the power on may cause the
unit to malfunction .
Note 2: Do not connect the HOD connector to any terminal other than
the hard disk card terminaL
Improper connection will not only prevent the HOD from
functioning properly, it may also result in serious damage to
the unit.

3. Cautions on handling the hard disk card
1) Beware of static electricity when installing the hard disk card.
When using
thr hard disk card do not touch the pins of the com-
ponents or the traces on the board directly with your hands since
there is the danger of static electricity damaging the components.
2) Dipswitch settings
The dipswitches are provided for service use only. Do not touch
them under any circumstances. These switches should be set as
below during use.
*All dispwitches should be OFF when using the hard disk card.
3) Ha rd disk card storage
To protect the ICs from damage due to static electricity during
storage, be sure to enclose the hard disk card in its cover or wrap it
in aluminium foil.

4. Service and repair
In the event of any malfunction or damage, immediately c ease operation,
unplug the power cord, and contact your local de aler or service outlet.
When repairs are required, this hard disk drive should be re packed in its
original packing and shipped to the service outlet.
Before doing this, be sure to perform step 3 (HDTR NS command
execution)
in the cautions (p. ~) before packing the HOD.
This is a precision device. You should not attempt to repair it yourself
as this can be dangerous, as can operation when the unit isdamaged.
