EXTERNAL FLOPPY DISK DRIVE PORT

The external floppy disk drive port is used for attaching an optional external floppy disk drive. In order to connect an external floppy disk drive to your LifeBook follow the instructions that came with your external floppy disk drive. (See figure 4-9 on page 44 for location)

P O I N T

Although there is a USB port on the system that will accommodate a floppy disk drive, and a standard floppy disk drive connector on the Port Replicator, only one drive should be connected at any time.

UNIVERSAL SERIAL BUS PORT

The Universal Serial Bus port (USB) allows you to connect USB devices such as external game pads, pointing devices, keyboards and/or speakers. In order to connect a USB device follow these easy steps: (See figure 2-7 on page 11 for location)

1.Align the connector with the port opening.

2.Push the connector into the port until it is seated.

P O I N T

Due to the ongoing changes in USB technology and standards, not all USB devices and/or drivers are guaranteed to work.

INFRARED PORT

The Infrared IrDA 1.1 (4Mbps) port allows for wireless data transfer between your LifeBook and other IrDA- compatible devices, such as another computer or a printer, without the use of a cable. (See figure 2-6 on page 10 for location)

It is important to keep in mind that while carrying out this form of communication, both devices must be placed so their infrared ports are directly facing each other without obstruction. The devices must also be separated by at least 6" but no more than 36" for maximum performance.

The following conditions may interfere with infrared communications:

A television, radio remote control unit, or a wireless headphone is being used nearby.

Direct sunlight, fluorescent light, or incandescent light shines directly on the port.

C A U T I O N

Do not move either device while communication is active as it may interrupt data transmission.

U s e r I n s t a l l a b l e F e a t u r e s

C A U T I O N

Be careful not to scratch the infrared port lens. Scratches, dirt, or other surface marks can degrade operation.

for infrared file transfers.
