PCMCIA Cards

The system’s PCMCIA slots are located behind the PCMCIA door on the left side of the unit. These slots may be used as two Type II slots or as one Type III slot. Since these are flush slots, the door can be shut even when a PCMCIA card is installed. The system is preconfigured to accept most PCMCIA cards automatically: simply plug a card into the PCMCIA slot as shown below:

Step 2:

Flip open the PCMCIA door on the left side of the unit.

Eject buttons: Step 3:

Select a PCMCIA card to install.

Step 4:

Slide the card into the slot and use the device as instructed in its manual.

To remove a PCMCIA card, simply press the appropriate eject button located to the right of the PCMCIA slot. Because the system supports “hot-swapping,” one card can usually be exchanged for another by simple removal and replacement.
