CD-ROM POWER

There are three power source options to choose to power the CD Traveler:

1. PCMCIA socket power direct

2. AC adapter

3. Battery.

However, you can use only AC adapter or batteries when the CD-ROM is

used with the Parallel Port connection or as a stand-alone CD player.

SELECTING THE POWER SOURCE

The POWER SOURCE SWITCH (as shown in ‚of Figure 2) is for selecting

which power source to use.

PC Card (PCMCIA) interface

User can select power source form PC or DC/BATT.

Parallel Port interface

User selects power source from DC/BATT only.

- -

POWER SOURCE SWITCH is set to “PC” (Figure 4.a)

The PCMCIA power direct is selected. Thus, the CD-ROM

will obtain power from PCMCIA socket of your computer,

there for no external power (AC or batteries) will be required.

In the event that your computer can not supply enough power

Fig. 4.a to operate the PCMCIA CD-ROM drive, then you will have to use

external power as described below. Do not set the switch to this position if

you are using the Parallel Port connection.

POWER SOURCE SWITCH is set to “DC/BATT” (Figure 4.b)

The external power source is selected. In this condition, you

must apply AC adapter or batteries to CD-ROM drive. The

Parallel Port connection requires the switch setting in DC/Batt

position. Please note that the AC adapter has a priority over

the battery in powering the CD-ROM drive. In other words, if

you connect the AC adapter, the CD-ROM drive will draw power Fig.4.b

from the adapter regardless if the batteries are installed or not.

NOTE: If you choose to use external power, remember to apply external

power before enabling the PCMCIA interface card (booting the

computer or hot-inserting the card).

For the Parallel Port connection, user will also need to apply external

power before booting the computer.

If you failed to apply the external power first, the drive status will

remain NOT READY although the external power is applied later; it

may also result in CD-ROM drive abnormal condition. In this case,

reboot your computer again to enable the CD-ROM drive.

WARNING

Do not shift the POWER SOURCE SWITCH when the CD-ROM is

powered on.

INSTALLING THE BATTERIES

The CD-ROM requires six AA size batteries (not included) for operation. The
