3. Connectors

As shown in the figure, all connectors are available on the rear panel of the device:

4. Software installation

With most operating systems such as Windows 95/98, ME, NT 3.51/4.0, 2000, XP, OS/2,

Mac OS and Linux the ID Drive operates as a plug-and-play device. It should be detec-

ted automatically and no software installation is necessary.

Data exchange with PC Card storage media functions without any problems between

different computer  systems. Most exchangeable  media  device  drivers  treat SCSI

exchangeable media as exchangeable hard disks, i.e. the media must be partitioned.

This is done with suitable partitioning or formatting programs.

5. Using the ID Drive

5.1

Inserting a PC Card

After completing installation of the ID Drive, insert a Type I, II or III PC Drive into the slot

with the connector end first. The correct way of inserting the card is also shown by a

small arrow or triangle on the label of the card.

You must only insert or remove PC cards when the LED is not lit. If you try to access the

drive when  there is no PC card inserted, you will get the error message “Not ready”,

analogously to a diskette drive when the diskette is missing.
